Unless your veterinarian prescribed curaderm, please do not use it in your cat. The cancerous areas will need to be removed surgically and then your cat may need chemotherapy. Please do not use ointment with salicylic acid on your cat, as cats cannot metabolise it. It will accumulate and eventually make your cat very ill. please take your cat to a veterinarian for a consult.
