When my cat came indoors this evening I noticed a faint brownish colour on her cheek, i thought it was dust but it was more red until I then noticed her ear was cut quite deeply. I cleaned the wound with cotton wool and warm saline solution. I was very gentle and let her be for a while. I noticed when checking on her that a segment of her ear has split, at the edge of where the cut is. She was restless when I tried cleaning the wound and has not been meowing at all, she is a little withdrawn which I take as her being in pain.

Aside from carrying on cleaning the wound gently and keeping her indoors for the time being, is there anything else I should do? I was questioning taking her to the vet but I will not be able to make it tomorrow.

Picture is the cut from the front, a picture of the back would display it better but i didnt want to post something a little more graphic.

Any help is appreciated!!!!
