Help, cat issue

[Taeobi]

After searching for this cat all day and till 11:00pm last night, then resuming the search today... I just now found him. It looks like the abscess is puffing up some and he is licking it. He has no raised temp and is eating and acting fine. Now that "KIDNAP CAT" has been executed, I will attempt to clean his paw and we will see how he does. Let's see how long it take the MIL to even notice he's not around.

and you expect the cat to lay still for all this liquid ?

Yup...
Have washed/cleaned wounds on dogs, cats, kittens, squirrels, raccoons, hawks, and an osprey or two.
It is all about how to restrain them and how quick you are in wound cleansing.

Update

Well Tiger has been inside my house for a day now. He doesn't like water, AT ALL!! lol, but he lets me clean it with soapy water, and then I rinse it so he doesn't lick the soapiness. It looks much better. It doesn't look as puffy as it did, but it is still puffy. He is eating fine and soooo cuddly!! He wakes me up in the middle of the night wanting me to love him. So, yes I'm a little tired, but he's worth it!!

The MIL still hasn't noticed him missing... :shrug:

hopefully she will never notice he is gone and when she comes over you need to make sure he is trapped in a bedroom that she never goes into that way she doesn't get pissed off at you for taking him home and caring for him taeobi. Does he use a litterbox with no issues?

Oh I know, I hope so also!! He has adjust to the littler box very well. He doesn't mind my dog. He seems to follow my cat around, my cat hasn't completely adjusted, (he is giving me dirty looks) but seems to tolerate him well.

People who say that animals DON'T have facial expressions have never owned a cat. Hope things work out.
