Tuna could have been injured. If you have clippers, trim back the fur in that area. Wash the wound with warm water and antiseptic soap. Keep the wound clean and dry, and monitor it daily. If you see signs of infection (redness, swelling, warmth to the touch, pus), you will need to take her into a vet immediately.
