My Cat recently acquired an open wound on her back, we figure it was from her crawling under small places and scratching her back on them. She does not go outside, and we have a very clean indoor environment. The other day we found she had scratched it open with her back claws and it was bleeding again. To try to help it heal, we put a small amount of Antibiotic ointment on the wound, thinking it was out of her reach.
Later was saw her licking it off, and tried to stop her before she got it all. We're not sure if she got it all off, because she ran away from us before we caught her to check on it.
Is the ointment dangerous to them? Even though it wasn't that much?
She's been acting unusually lazy today, she's only 6 years old, sleeping alot, and not eating as much as she usually does...could she be sick?!
I'm looking for serious answers, I'm very worried about her, she's like my baby..
Thank you!
