Warning, pictures are kinda gross.
My 7 month old cat ('Cash') was neutered last Friday, and seemed happy & healthy, energetic, good appetite, totally normal ... until last night when we noticed this bulbous red thing on his testicles. He still behaves normally, still eating, playing, being a pain in the arse like normal... but this THING is freaking me out a little.
I phoned the vet last night and spoke to him at length. He said if it looks worse today, to bring him into the clinic and have someone look at it. He said it sounded like a hematoma or a blood blister, but because the cat was acting normal, he wasn't very worried. He advised me to put Polysporin on it and keep him quiet & calm (nice try, he's a 7 month-old terror - we locked him up alone last night, but that's the best I can do).
Today, it looks slightly better, but still gross.
Anyone here ever have any experience with this type of thing?
