Of course you know it's tough to not wrap the paw too tightly because they will try to get it off; but once I wrapped a paw too tightly after my boy stepped on the end of a metal hanger. Later, I pulled the wrap off and the paw was so swollen – oh no! But it went back to normal size soon. Fortunately there was no infection from the metal intrusion. I used rubbing alcohol like I seem to use for most things.
The key in wrapping is to bring the wrapping up over the wrist, then attach the vet wrap with adhesive tape at the top and bottom so that it makes contact with skin and wrap. If you are doing a padded wrap then you would use adhesive tape on each side of the foot and leg double the size you need and attach it before putting on bandaging. Once you put the bandage on, then bring the excess of tape back down the sides of foot/leg on each side to stick to the bandage. Secure top and bottom and you have a bandage that will stay on for days.
 
We took the bandage off to inspect and re-wrap. Yesterday’s attempt was ok but I needed to grab some decent bandages. Anyhoo, took it off for like 5 minutes to let it breathe,no bleeding. Then all of a sudden a cat shot across the back wall. Damn!!! What timing :mad: She spotted it went mental and it must of re-opened a bit because it started to bleed. I won’t tell you what my husband said about the said cat Lol :machinegun:


So, straight back in to a decent bandage wrap and we’ll leave her alone for a few days to heal.

Cruza is now allowing Bogie to be on the bed with her without planting herself on his face. It’s been slow progress but I think Cruza is figuring out he isn’t so bad after all. Although she did chase him off the bed about 20min later.:rofl:A87FB2EC-E19C-484A-86E2-1A2BB53262F9.webp
 
We spent Friday with some Family and yesterday with friends so today was just chill day! Put together my wine cork board my sister got me for my birthday... LAST year :woot2: I almost ran out of corks so had to break into one of smaller ones and steal the corks from that one...

He did not budge until I called him to me. I love this boy!!
He is finally getting it. Patience is key.:thumbsup:
 
How is Buddy’s foot today?
Thank you for asking! It's not totally healed yet. I had the bandage off for a while but when I saw him licking it I took a look at it again. It's weird because it's not in one particular spot. It's just kind of raw with a few spots that look like cuts. I wrapped it up good again and it's been out for a couple of days now. So hopefully with some ointment on it and no licking it could get some time to heal.
