Our cat has just come home with a wound on his front leg. He's walking fine but he cried when I touched it. It's not deep, it just looks quite sore. I'm a natural worry wart, especially when it comes to my boys and I would have him to the vet tomorrow but DH thinks it's probably not necessary and it'll heal. Besides, both he and I won't be home before 7.30 tomorrow evening so unlikely we could get to the vet anyway. Will it just heal on its own? Obviously I'll keep an eye on it but should I have him to the vets?
We're not used to this! We're used to eye infections, damaged nasal tubes and poorly ears (they're rather high maintenance 
)
