My cat got bit a few days ago and we're going to take him to the vet but in the meantime i'm not sure what to do. He got bit by the ear and his whole face is swolen... i rubed his cheek and puss came out of his bite. i then rubbed his whole face and it came shooting out with blood and puss. We can't get him to the vet fast enough. What kind of infection do you think it is?

Have you tried washing salt water over it or at least just water? That sounds so sad!! Is there no emergency veterinary place you can take him to? The longer he goes with the infection, the more it can spread and cause more damage.

Wow, you cat has a rip roaring infection and needs some serious antibiotics. Apply warm wet compresses in the area, keep the area clean and get that cat to the vet ASAP. I would call the vet and ask if you can bring the cat in and drop him off there until they can get to him because it is extremly bad. This cat need medical attention now!

The kind of infection I believe that he has is a bacteria from getting bit by the other cat. Your vet must be able to fit him in right away. He needs antibiotics immediately. Phone around and get him in. He is very sick. He will also become dehydrated.
