    Bruising on his ear?

    My cat Sonny looks like his ear is bruised and there is a small purple dot. I'm thinking that him and our other cat were fighting and he got bit or scratched. I've never seen bruising before...should I be worried?

    Personally I have never seen bruising on any animal so I really couldn't tell if that is the problem. I just wanted to say to keep an eye on it and if it should get worse in a day or two, then maybe you should have a vet look at it.

    Good luck.

    Sounds to me like he was playing and might have been bit a little too hard. There's really nothing to worry about unless the spot gets larger, changes colors, or a large lump starts to form.

    This happens to Jamie and Charlie sometimes.

    thank you for your input, I'll keep an eye on it. It doesn't seem to be bothering him but he does pull away when I try to touch it.
