My cat has a huge bump in his left ear?

Question

My Cat he is a fat alley cat named Tigger and a few weeks ago we noticed a bump in his ear, Its been a few weeks and the bump has gotten larger and his ear folds over, My mom told me it was a Sisc (sp?) I am just worried has anyone else had this problem?

Answer 1

I think the word is cyst - and that could be possible go find a cat web site and see if you may be able to research this as a common thing or not common thing on cats and compare the information you learn to what your cat has on his ear.

Answer 2

oh its pronounced cyst and it just means that alot of the cells in his ear are getting clumped up together. i recomend u go to a vet and get it checked because if its nothing wrong theyll just remove it but it could be cancer so u might wanna get it checked out asap.!.

Answer 3

A. Take him to the vet. or B. fix the problem yourself.

Here's the thing...He's gotten into a fight or something and he has an infection..

You can either take him to the vet and everything will be cleared up in no time, or you can try to treat it yourself and run the risk of the infection becoming systemic and affecting his brain and nervous system and then he dies of the fever and infection...

Don't want to go to the vet ? Very well..

You need to lance the cyst...Open it up and then flush it very very well several times a day with a salution of 1/2 vinegar and 1/2 alcohol...He won't like this....He will want to kill you...

Please be diligant because if you just flush it out for a day or 2, the infection will come back full force and he will die anyway....

Let's call the vet in the morning, o.k. ?
