Question
My cat, named Butterscotch, keeps cutting open his face. I'm not really sure how he is doing this, because I have checked everywhere and there is nothing that could cut his face open! I took him to the vet and the vet said that it wasn't a problem and that he just got cut. After he did it a few more times, we took him back. Still, the vet said it was nothing.
Is there something I can do to:
- heal the cut?
- stop it from happening?
I think I found the culprit. Found out my cat could jump on top of my shower doors. There was a conch shell on the cabinet to get up there. Is it possible this would scratch him? He bled quite a bit but I didn't see any blood on the conch shell.
Answer
There are several camera options that can help you find the cause.
Set up a camera (preferably with motion activation) in the place(s) you think is the most likely cause. Comparing new injuries with the video should be very helpful in identifying the cause.
There are also cat mounted cameras but I am not a fan of collars on cats.
