Hello, sorry to hear about your cat. If she is an indoor outdoor cat this may be a sign of an abscess from a bite wound of another animal. Alternatively, this could be a parasite. It would need to be evaluated by a veterinarian as soon as possible to ensure she does not have an abscess or a parasite and be treated appropriately. Please contact your nearest veterinarian to have her evaluated.
