Hi there,
I'm really sorry to hear about your cat's diagnosis. Hemangiosarcoma is a type of cancer that affects the blood vessels, and while it's not very common in cats, it can sometimes appear in unusual places like the toes. This can be tough news to receive, but knowing what to watch for can be really helpful going forward.
In the short term, make sure your cat is as comfortable as possible. You might notice limping or an unwillingness to put weight on the affected paw; gentle handling and providing a cozy, quiet space can be comforting. Keep the area clean and monitor for any signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, or discharge.
It's also important to monitor for more serious signs. If your cat starts showing signs of lethargy, loss of appetite, or starts hiding more than usual, these can be signals that the condition is progressing and it's time to consult a vet right away.
Given the seriousness of hemangiosarcoma, booking a video consult with one of our vets at Dial A Vet would be a great next step. We can discuss treatment options, pain management, and any other concerns you might have. We're here to support you and your furry friend through this challenging time.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
