My 16 year old Cat (Snaggles) has a rare cancer....it is an injection site - fibrosarcoma (just off the left side of his anal area). It was diagnosed late March and we had it removed. We cared for him, gave vitamins to try to improve his immune system BUT didn't want him to endure any chemo or radiation treatment. This aggressive cancer is now back and it is very large.

We have elected not for him to go through surgery again and we are just keeping him comfortable and stress free (as suggested by our 2 vets). MY ISSUE is the cancer has "broken" through and killed his skin and is very bloody. This "open wound" needs some form or care and we need it to stop.

DOES anyone have any known remedies or suggestions to care for this open cancer wound,,,that we imagine will only grow more over the next few weeks

thanks
Michael
