  1. You should bring her and hid her in your room. Put all of her food in there and litter box. That is what one of my friends do. Try and save up some money and then take her to the vets her is in need of medical care.


  2. I am the biggest anti Vet cat person, but in this case dear, you MUST take her to the vet. She could have gotten something from the dogs, or worse an infection. They can also probably give her something to calm her down and make her drowsy so she can sleep through most of the healing. This is something you can’t do on your own.  

  3. sounds like u did the right thing. but if u can take her to the vet. If u cant just continue to keep a eye on her and clean her wounds very well. She should be okay. She is going to be stressed during this healing period so try to make everything as nice for her as u can. =D  

  4. Short answer.. see your vet. Is that her only wound? Until you can get into the office, keep it clean with warm water, never use peroxide and use a thin layer of Neosporin. Definetly get her to the vet though, she could very easily get an infection.

  5. all animals carry bacteria on their teeth - so you need to get your cat to the vet as soon as you can to make sure she hasn't picked up an infection.... in the meantime you could try making a megaphone collar for her - the sort of thing that sits around their heads to stop them being able to clean or bite area of their body .... it's a bit awkward for them to get around due to the size of it - but it does help when trying to give an area time to heal......  the other alternative is to keep her buy you all the time and deter her from pulling the bandages off ..... if the wound looks like it needs cleaning then a mild solution of salt water or a medicated disinfectant will help with cleaning up the area and healing .....

  6. You can't do anything yourself but try to stop the bleeding.  TAKE HER TO A VET ASAP!!

  7. I would take her to a vet asap to make sure the other dogs did not have rabies or another disease they could have spread to her. Keep the bandages on but try to keep her as still as possible. I would put a pillow on your lap (with a towel just in case the bleeding starts again) and let her lay there. Rubs on the back of her head may calm her down. But my best advice would be to go to the vet. He/she may also be able to provide some pain meds and make sure she doesn't need stitches.  

  8. Take her to the Vet.

  9. My most positive answer to this is always hold her and make sure to at least really be careful . eventually she will get better but dint count me on that, The reason i say that is in case the bone is broken fractured etc. but when you sit down try to lay her down and make sure she does not move
