Cats’ nails are part of the daily care of pet cats. However, when cutting nails, if you accidentally cut the nail blood vessels of the mud pig, it will cause nail bleeding.
What should you do when you see blood seeping on your cat's nails? Here are a few steps you should do.
1. Comfort your cat Before starting any treatment, first comfort your cat.
She may become nervous or angry when she feels pain and hurt.
To avoid making her more afraid, you should give her some love and comfort and tell her that everything will be fine.
2. Stop bleeding When the cat's nails are bleeding, you need to gently press the wound with a clean gauze or cotton ball.
You can also use a special "hemostatic powder" to help relieve bleeding.
Gently sprinkle the hemostatic powder on the wound and wait for a few minutes until the bleeding is relieved or stopped.
3. Treat the wound When the bleeding is relieved or stopped, you need to treat the wound.
You should carefully clean the wounds of your cat's nails.
You can use warm water or saline instead of disinfectant to clean the wound and gently apply it to the wound with a cotton ball or gauze stained with hemostatic powder to make sure it is dry and clean.
4. Observe the cat's condition. Bleeding during nail cutting usually rarely causes serious health problems, but you need to observe the cat's condition.
If the bleeding does not decrease or even heal, you need to consult your pet doctor's professional advice.
5. Prevent rebleeding To avoid reinjuring your nails, you can consider bringing gloves for professional pet trimming nails, or have pet trimmers teach you how to cut your nails correctly.
Remember that when you cut your cat's nails, you should try to avoid cutting too deep, as this will damage the blood vessels and nerves of the nails.
In short, when our pets have unexpected wounds, we need to remain calm and take measures to relieve pain and bleeding as soon as possible.
If the situation is serious or does not stop, it is necessary to seek help from a professional doctor in time.
