This morning I noticed that Rico had a small bloody scab on the top of his head. I am guessing that last night he bumped his head on the coffee table roughhousing with his brother, Ben. I cleaned it with hydrogen peroxide and put a little neosporin on it. It there anything else that will help it heal faster?

It doesn't seem to hurt but I have to say I feel so bad for him.

It might also be from scratching. One time Mr. biggs got attacked by fleas and he scratched one spot so much he got a scab. I just put neosporin on it. It took a while to heal, but he was ok

There is an antibiotic ointment that heals wonderfully called Panalog...you get it from your Vet.....stuff is so great, I used on a rash that I had...and it cleared it overnight.
