Answer by Kate
Sounds like she has been bitten by something and is having a reaction to the bite. I must admit i don't know of any home remedy for this, the vet need to give a anti histamine injection to relive the itching.

Cold water may helpt to relive the itching but you can't really put any sort of cream on it as the cat will lick it off.
