Update: Since many people are insinuating I am a horrible cat abuser, this happened due to a loud noise from my speakers spooking the cat. This triggered a cat fight with my other cat, I then attempted to break it up. Both cats are fine and will be attending a vet in the morning. Would have specified that if I fucking understood Imgur.
Update 2: I am bringing both myself and the cat to the doctor/vet today, I sincerely appreciate everybody's concern and help. I had a pretty nasty view of Imgurians when I posted that update, but after explaining the situation people became much more understanding. Again, thank you.

Bro this can infect you really bad. Kitties and all broken teeth suck, but you kinda need to get to a doc asap too...

That means you won
sardonislamir
YOU NEED TO GO TO THE DOCTOR AND GET TREATED. That WILL ABSOLUTELY GET INFECTED. PLEASE. Cat bites are narrow and deep; you can't clean it.

I doubt you'd be showing it off if it were abuse. Some people just enjoy drama. Watch out though, you'll be a cat on the next full moon.
ImForcedToMakeMemesAgainstMyWill
Cat abuser was not the first thing that came to my mind. Good on you for making sure your cats didn't hurt each other.
buttsareawesome
Love that some people's first thoughts are that you must abuse cats. I mean maybe you got attacked by a feral cat. @SmilinSkull
Chicabutt
Please see a doctor as soon as possible. My son was hospitalized and in isolation for 3 days for a cat bite.
AreolaBorealis
As a doctor, I agree. Remove the tooth. Soap and water to wash it out thoroughly. And go see a doctor for antibiotics.
superfeathers
For what?
AreolaBorealis
Cat bites have high infection rates and carry specific bacteria. Cat bites routinely get antibiotics to decrease chance of nasty infection

I will, thank you.

Yes please go yourself. My cat bit me on the hand. Doc said if I waited one more day I'd lose part of it. Had to be on IVs.
pandro
My vet in AL said docs are required to report cat bites, just like they would a dog. My cat was unharmed, I was too scared to get treated.
pandro
This was years ago - got lucky and had no infection/repercussions.

It won't kill the cat, but looks like enough to expose the pulp. Cat is likely in pain. @smilinskull be careful cat doesn't lash out!

The cat is fine, will be seeing a vet in the morning.

But in all seriousness @op cat bites that pierce the skin have a VERY high chance of becoming infected. It's the nature of their bite. 1/2
madguillotine
Yes. In her teens, my kid volunteered at a cat shelter & was bitten. She spent 3 days in hospital on IV or she'd have lost use of her finger
Mechlai
I would get it checked... Unless I lived in a country where I had to PAY for a checkup, then I would nuke it with an alcohol based rub 2/3

@OP you need to kill the glenmoril witches and burn one of their heads in the fire inside Ysgramors Toomb. Or become a vampire lord.

I got bit by my car while rescuing her from a stray dog. Wound up with "blood poisoning" and was hooked up to IV penicillin for 3 days.

I ended up in the hospital and with a brace for 3 months due to a cat bite infection. It did major damage to the tendons in my arm.

Yes. My mom almost lost a finger because of the infection. GO SEE A DOC ASAP.

The wound, not the cat.

I legit know a woman who died from a cat bite. Horrific :c go to the doctors.

Go to the doctor. My vet lost partial use of his hand from a cat bite that infected the bone.
Degia
This x1000. I had a dumbass friend get bit by a cat, then went out party/dancing. She ended up in the hospital for over a week .
BigMutts
80% of cat bites get infected. 10 minutes contact time will help negate that. I'm a vet tech I have been bitten and scratched so many times.
Heeeyyooouuuguuuyyys
My buddy almost died from a cat bite. Got blood poisoning. Had to get blood transfusions for a week
Heeeyyooouuuguuuyyys
To be fair though, it was a dirty dumpster cat

Yep same...I got a cat bite in my wrist - basically cat spit injected directly into my veins. Was on an antibiotic IV drop for a week. :(

I got a cat bite that made the muscles in my wrist & forearm seize up as the infection spread. Strong antibiotics worked, thank fuck.

I was bitten when my cat got scared of a dog and went to the doctor the next day's morning. My arm had already turned red. You need a shot.
chunkiehedgie86
Hell yes. Cat bites are practically guaranteed to get infected. Boss was hospitalized for 4 days b/c a bite like this got infected.

TheBurritoConfederacy
Cats've some particularly nasty pathogenic bacteria in their saliva; now it's under his skin. Better to pick up some antibiotics to be safe.
tofudisan
THIS! One of the most painful injuries I have ever had was a cat bite on the hand. Hurt like a bitch the next day.
[deleted]

Definitelynotapieceofrapecheese
In many cases you a bite may not get infected, but I have heard of dozens of cases just in our small ER when people had solid infections /1
Definitelynotapieceofrapecheese
some even followed by necrosis and amputation of fingers or spreading sepsis because people don't take it seriously /2
RdizzyC
If it's a purely indoor cat, you'll be fine, I get scratched/bitten on a daily basis, don't even bother cleaning them anymore.
myglassesarebiggerthanyours
Yea but that looks like it went a little deeper than the average bite.
CathastrophyCentral
Doesn't matter if it's a feral or house cat, they all have specialised bacteria in their mouths to deal with cleaning themselves 1/?
CathastrophyCentral
Always best to get a cat bite checked out; I've been bitten by 6 cats so far while out on rescues, fostering & by my own cats 2/?
CathastrophyCentral
Sometimes I've needed antibiotics other times there's not been a reaction to it.

Are you not understanding the hygiene issue with a cat who has fecal matter in it's mouth and it entering your body via penetration??? ?¿??¿
NameNotFoundException
But you enter the home of fecal matter through penetration too? I don't understand
haveanothergif
Jeez just a joke
Honorius77
Honest curiosity, will a doctor do anything beyond clean the wound if there's no signs of infection?
imyourclairebear
Animal bites are one of the things that often need antibiotics. We usually irrigate them like you wouldn't believe to prevent infection.
HolleyRagnarok
think it mostly depends where you are, here in the US most doctors would probably hint at giving broad-range antibiotics "as a precaution"
dragonsfriend
Yea, cat scratch fever is common even with wounds from house cats.
AssMaster3000
It's a specific pathogen found in cat saliva- very serious
cattriona
Not probably, and not hint, they'd prescribe Augmentin or something similar.
Tak231
Cat bites almost ALWAYS are infectious if they break the skin. While I have yet to have a cat bite break the skin, Working as a vet tech-
Tak231
-I have seen numerous bites, and only one wasn't seen by a doctor immediately after... Her hand swelled up like a balloon
Tak231
and if OP actually let the damn tooth in, there is absolutely no doubt that it's going to get infected...
