Home care can be extremely difficult when a cat is frightened, leading to injuries for both owner and cat. But if you give your cat medical treatment at home, make sure that you have the first-aid supplies in the following list on hand:
Adhesive tape | Kwik Stop powder |
Benadryl antihistamine | Scissors |
Betadine antiseptic | Sterile gauze, both rolls and pads |
Cat restraint bag | Syringe with the needle removed, for giving liquid medication |
Cotton swabs, balls, and rolls | Syrup of Ipecac |
Eye wash | Thermometer |
Forceps or tweezers | Triple antibiotic cream or ointment |
Hydrogen peroxide | Water-based lubricating jelly, such as K-Y |
If your cat is injured and in pain, it may be easier to put him or her into a carrier and head to the veterinarian.
