So my boy Bruce, is having a bit of an issue with his nose.

I'm planning on taking him to the vet, but in the mean time, was just looking to seek out some advice.

The fleshy bit between his nose and his upper lip, looks raw/sore/red - sometimes a tiny bit bloody.

Anyone got any ideas on what could be causing this? He doesn't go outside as he's a Ragdoll.

He's no different in personality and it looks like it's causing him no issue.

Help?

The only thing I can relate it to, is that in Feb, he developed excessive nose bleeding from his right nostril.

Happened 4-5 times in one night, so I took him in to the after hours vets.

They put him under, did the usual camera up schnozz type things.

They fed him anti inflammatories and that calmed it down.

So they put it down to an 'inflammatory' condition, which hasnt occured since.

Otherwise, he doesn't go out and is a very relaxed kitty.
