My cat has a bloody leg wound, not walking or eating. Is it broken?

Question

My cat came back home with blood on his leg. It looks like a wound and he did not walk normally. He did not want to eat and only sleep. It is possible that his leg is broken? Pet's info: Cat | Asian | Male | unneutered

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It is not possible to know this just based on this picture. However, with a history of possible trauma and the presence of blood then a fracture is possible. Just based on the presence of blood and the possibility of a fracture, I would highly recommend you have him evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. They would be able to check what seems to be the issue so that it can be treated accordingly. Good luck!
