My cat has a big ear tumor making its ear droop. What should I do?

Question

Our neighborhood cat has a tumor on his ear. It’s big enough that it makes the ear droop but it’s not on the inside. Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Male | neutered | 10 lbs

This is a seriously big tumor and needs to be removed ASAP before it spreads to thee inside of the ear. It is obviously painful or bothering the cat, which is why she is scratching it drawing blood. This in turn may cause infection. Please encourage your neighbors to take Baby to a veterinarian and have that tumor removed surgically.
