My cat has a small red bump on its head. Is it a scab or serious?

Question

I just noticed a very small red bump on the head of my cat. He is a 10 year old Siamese, and seems to be pain/itch free. He is exclusively indoors, as is our other cat. If it helps, the other cat has had a wart (diagnosed by our vet) under her fur for many years. Is this something that I should just watch, or what do you suggest?

From the picture it looks like it may be a scab. I would watch for the next few days and see if it goes away. If it is not resolving then I would encourage you to have him evaluated by your veterinarian. Best of luck and thank you for using Pet Coach.
