AnswerHello,
I think a trip to the vet is in order. Open wounds can become infected, leading to internal problems, thus threatening the cats life . A quick trip in to have a vet look at it, and then probably prescribe some antibiotics for a few days. Bathing the area in salt water may be good in addition to some medical treatment. So, call your vet and have her seen as soon as possible.
Hope this is helpful, and good luck with her,
Tomay
