In reply to the discussion: Seeking advice regarding a kitty [View all]davsand
(13,421 posts)63. Cat injuries can and DO abscess badly.
Try putting that yummy food inside the pet taxi and see if you can catch him that way. I'd be worried about that swelling, and I'd suggest s trip to a vet as soon as you can manage it. He may be a sick kitty and not show signs of it because that is cat nature--weakness is something they hide as a form of self defense.
Good luck to you and to that kitty!
