My indoor cat managed to get out of a window on Friday afternoon. He got back at 3 am today. He seems absolutely fine, happy, eating, using the litter tray etc.
When he came in I smelled something like wood preservative but his coat was clean and there were no sticky footprints.
However, he was just sitting on my lap and I noticed something brown on one of his back feet. It doesn’t smell at all and I can’t get any of it off.it is a very small area and he is showing no interest in it but he won’t let me try to get it off..
How dangerous could it be? Taking him to the vet is a nightmare as he gets very stressed (he has a heart complaint). Is it safe to leave it as he isn’t trying to wash his feet . Advice please.
