Hi there.
This is my first post on this forum, I stumbled across it during my google search for "Cats Swollen Lip". I read through a couple of threads and thought you're kind nice people who could possibly help.
I have a 7month old Cat named Bell. He recently fell (Jumped...) out of my bedroom window, up the stairs... He keeps trying to get out. Well, he grazed his chin, and I cleaned it with some salt water, and it healed fine... However, now his lip is a bit swollen... I saw a Graze on one side of it, but that has healed (somewhat) now, and the scab is ready to fall off... But now the swelling has spread to the other side of his lip, and the bottom of his nose seems a bit swollen to me...
I can hear his breathing which I've never been able to do before...
He is an indoor cat, and hasn't been neutered yet, don't know if any of them are relevant, but I thought I'd include everything.
Other than me being an over protective Mumma and worrying, he seems fine, he is cuddling still, rubbing his face on everything he can, eating fine, pooping fine, and doesn't seem to be in any pain, he lets me look at it and touch it with no problem, no fussing.
I'm including some photos for you to have a look at and see what you think.
The brown bits are food that are stuck, I keep removing them, but he just keeps eating!
In this you can see the scab on the left hand side of his lip, this is where the swelling started, but has gone down considerably. Now just his entire mouth looks swollen... But again, nowhere near as bad as it was..
In this photo, you can see 2 white little bums at the bottom of his nose, and they're new... I've never seen them before.
my Fiance told me I'm worrying too much, but hes my babe... and I don't want him to be miserable and in pain! You can also see where he scabbed his chin, with a bit of food on it... -____-
Any help you guys can give me is greatly appreciated, and I appreciate your time.
Thanks in Advance x
