INFORMATION: Cat. bites are worse than dog bites, but both can become infected. Waiting longer than 12h can increase the chance of infection. Signs of infection include increasing pain, increasing redness, warmth, febrile, "hot", pain w/ motion, maybe an abscess. Simply put, he's getting worse instead of better. If so, consider your doctor if they are open this morning, or a trip to the ER
