    E-Gad! That's horrible! The hole is much larger than I pictured it. (Or, the kitten is much smaller, xD)
    Poor Kitteh... =[

    I've never seen anything like that...
    However, I've never seen skin lumps, either. On peteducation.com, the said that it can develop into skin leisons...
    Have you tried following the treatment on that site?
    Unfortunately, I don't know what to tell you.
    Unless you get someone on here that recognizes it (easier with pics) or take it to a vet... I just don't know...

    I'm VERY sorry I couldn't be more help, and wish you and your cat luck.

    That cat needs to get to a vet.
    Either scounge together the money to do it, or surrender your kitten to a humane society so it can get treated. This isn't fair to the kitten.
    Please stop letting your cats have kittens. Pets are a privilege, not a right.

    I know.
    But I'm doing all I can.
    Not all of my cats are like this so... I don't want to give them all up.
    We don't have a human society around here,and if we did I wouldn't give him up.
    I'm doing all I can to help it.

    I'm not trying to sound harsh, but you are dealing with a life and if you cannot provide proper care, then you should find someone who can.

    Sariss, I had to spread the rep around. Sariss is correct. This cat needs veterinary care, pronto. You cannot fix this cat on your own. Please don't allow him to perish in this manner... get him to the vet.

    Hi again, taylor2012!

    Please remember what I stated in post #7 about the possibilities of getting someone else to pay for a visit to the vet. Okay? It is definitely worth a try!

    Thanks!

    Exactly!
    That hole in horrendous.

    I could understand if it was just a skin condition but that is far beyond anything you can do from home.

    If you choose not to treat the kitten be careful the SPCA don't catch you, you would be done for animal cruelty for not getting it treated.

    I'm sorry for being so blunt/harsh but you need a wake up call.

    If you had a hole like that in your head you would go to the doctor immediately!

    Thank you Clough.
    I don't like being mean but sometimes you just need to give people a shove in the right direction.

    Helpinhere's advice was great, but after seeing the photos a vet or shelter is the only option.

    I have to agree with you there, shazamataz! That "hole" thing looks really serious! I've had cats virtually all of my life and have never seen that kind of thing in any one of them.

    Thanks!

    We might be able to track down a place that can help you.

    Taylor sent me a PM and I provided him with a list of Shelters in his state.

    I hope one of them is close enough to him.
