Poor Posh Paws. She is so pretty! If the sore isn't healing, this does requires a visit to the vet. I would take her into the vet first thing in the morning to have this treated. Eating more can also be a sign of a problem such as diabetes or hyperthyroidism, which is common in older cats. I also recommend having a geriatric blood panel and urinalysis done. I hope this helps!
