Answer 1

Cats are pretty tough and resilient. My cats have always recovered from bad wounds without having to take them to a vet.

Of course I keep an eye on them...look for signs of infection...but generally they'll keep the wound clean and recover rapidly. I have used antibacterial ointments on my cats (and even my chickens) with great success...such as Neosporin and Bacitracin.

I'd keep the cat indoors for a few days and put some of this stuff on the wound...take her to a vet when one is available if you're really concerned.

I know I'll catch hell from vets and pet lovers over this advice, but I've had outdoor cats all of my life and have dealt with bloody gashes and injuries from fights many times without any problem. Cats...as do all animals...get along mostly fine with all but the most serious injuries and illnesses...as they have for millions of years.

Many humans are in the habit of running to a doctor for the slightest thing...forgetting that the immune system and instinct takes care of 99% of the issues that may or may not occur. (I know one lady who has a PLANT doctor for her house plants!)

Answer 2

I am not a vet, but I have cleaned many a wound on cats. You didn't indicate if this was a superficial wound or a puncture. Superficial wound, clean and put a little iodine on it. I will assume it is deeper than just skin level. Hydrogen peroxide IS excellent for cleaning the wound. It dries rapidly and does not leave a residue. Same principle as alcohol. Vets use it all the time. Good first choice in fact. You can buy a "betadine" solution to clean the wound and it will also provide some healing property to the wound without harming the cat. This wound must be cleaned several times a day. A topical antibiotic like neosporin will not harm the cat in small doses they get from licking . I advise you try and get some on the wound. After cleaning the spot, you can also apply plain old cornstarch as well. Cornstarch will dry quickly and provide some protection against bacteria. Dampen the skin and tap dry cornstarch onto it. It will dry and create a barrier. It won't last very long as the cat is an outdoor cat, but if you can catch it, repeat the treatment. If the cat will let you hold it, you can apply a warm tea bag to the area. It is not only a good pain reliever, it helps draw out infection and helps in the healing process. You can also pack tea leaves from the bag into the wound. Puncture wounds do need to be drained if you see a puss pocket forming. You can, IF the cat will tolerate it, lightly "express" the wound to force puss out. Once you have done this, flush it will peroxide or betadine, let it dry and try to put some type of topical covering on it. Some type of paste mixture OR you can buy a "liquid" bandaid. But with this you will have to remove it to clean it again. If a deep puncture wound seals over before it is drained sufficiently it can become life threatening. If you are worried about being able to catch it again, a good bribe like pungent sardines works wonders.....:) It is really very kind of you to care for an injured animal that is a stray. I applaud your efforts. I hope the cat heals well from your ministrations. He may very well adopt you. Cats can be very grateful to people who show kindness to them.

Answer 3

The cat needs to be seen by a Vet.
If you can't get in touch with your Vet then call every Vet within driving distance.
The wound needs to be sewn back up.
You can't just let it alone waiting for it to close up on it's own.
Doing that is only asking for an infection to set in.

And DO NOT give the cat ANY OTC medication.

Answer 4

My vet has a 24 hour emergency number, a pager. Did you call there office number? Sometimes they have a recording telling you what to do in an emergency. She will die like that. For now wrap some clean cotton, like a t-shirt around her to keep her covered to help germs stay out. I pray all goes well.

Answer 5

Take her back to the vet. They can clean the area and restitch if necessary. Also, ask about an antibiotic for her. Feed stores, pet stores sell penicillin for fish tanks. Cats hate them, but I have used that successfully.

Answer 6

Yeah. just keep her wrapped up until you can get help. Make sure she's kept still and slight pressure is kept on the wound, it will help to stop the bleeding. 8 months is ok... she will have a lot of fight left in her. I give you my word... she'll be fine as long as you get help within a couple hours. Tell your kitty I said hi. = )

Answer 7

Take her back to the vet. Even if only vet - cat needs the vet.

Answer 8

if the wound is open you need to get it covered - sticking plaster or bandage to stop anything getting into it. Then you need to get her to the vet ASAP as it needs to be stitched back up.

Ask about a collar to stop her getting the new stitches out again.

Answer 9

if you don't trust your vet go to the next county. call the local shelter they should be able to help you but you must get the stitches replaced or else infection will set in.

Answer 10

unfortunately you'll have to go back. they may have to use staples this time.
