Abstract
A 5‐year‐old female cat presented with a purple depressed lesion on a metatarsal pad inducing ulceration and pain. Histopathological results revealed a non‐neoplastic vascular proliferation, a rare condition in cats. Topical beta‐blocker successfully prevented recurrence of ulceration. This case highlights the emerging use of topical beta‐blockers in both veterinary and human dermatology.
