    Re: cat attack injuries **PICS!!** lol

    to me it kind of looks like scale rot on the bottom? are you sure it's not just swelling making the bump???? it does look like they're healing well though... and the betadine that your using should clear up an infection if that's what's causing the bump......

    yeah Im pretty much positive that it isnt scale rot for several reasons. mainly because if she didnt have it before there's no physical way she could have acquired it since Ive had her considering if anything she's in much better conditions now than she had ever been in the wild and she never had it then. This is only something that has shown itself since the bites have been healing. I dont know why. It might just be the areas where the puntures are shedding scale? I really just dont know.

    and from the pictures it may look like it but its not topical swelling making the lump. you'd really have to see it, because I can see how it may seem that way by viewing the pics but from watching her move and inspecting the skin around it, its definitely inside there. Its almost like a kink in a way.

    o a kink..... that's possible too..... i've seen lots of wild ones with seemingly broken spines..... with lots of scars around them too..... if it doesn't feel squishy or anything than that's most likely it... you might be able to feel right were it is if you run your finger down the ridge of her back.....
