If your cat scratches its own skin, you need to take the following steps immediately: Check the injury carefully: observe whether the wound is bleeding and red and swollen. If the bleeding is severe, apply pressure to the wound to stop the bleeding. If there is obvious swelling around the wound , fever or suppuration, you need to take the cat to the veterinary clinic immediately for examination. Clean the wound: Gently wash the wound with warm water and avoid using harsh detergents or medications. If the wound is serious, you can use some professional cleaning agents prescribed by your doctor.
Disinfect the cat: Use some non-toxic disinfectant products to disinfect the cat, such as iodophor. Avoid using harsh disinfectants as they may irritate your cat’s wound and prolong the healing time. Daily care: Help cats stay dry, clean and hygienic to avoid infection and disease. Have a quiet environment to avoid recurrence of trauma. Please note that if the wound is serious or the cat's condition worsens, you must take the cat to the veterinarian in time.
