Cats And Minor Wounds |
|
From time to time, most cats will sustain minor wounds. These wounds are usually as a result of fights with dogs or other cats or when attacking prey. The cats ears, face, and front paws are most vulnerable. One should inspect wounds for any dirt or other matter that could be removed with cotton wool and then bathe the wound in a salt solution, 1 tsp to 1 pint of cooled, boiled water. You should not use proprietary disinfectants as these may be harmful to the cat. If the wound fails to heal or developes an abcess seek veterinary attention asap. Last 5 posts in Cat Health
