Tigger Update

Update on Tigger.
 We took Tigger back home one day after vet did the surgery. Everyday for 2 weeks we got to clean his wound, bandage his head, and feed him anti-flame and antibiotics.

Stuff that we need for Operation : Treat Tigger. I believe these items should be in Kitty First Aid as well.

1. Crepe Bandage
2. Gauze Swabs
3. Scisor, cotton pad
4. Surgical tape
5. Antiseptic wash & iodine
6. Herbal spray (to avoid flies lay egg at wound and causing maggots)

Gauze swabs, crepe bandage, and surgical tape which you can find at local pharmacy near you.

Tigger's wound after surgery. Vet removed the rotten flesh leaving one big hole under his chin

Antiseptic wash. Ratio for antiseptic wash over water is 1:10

Wash the wound with antiseptic wash

Iodine which we bought from vet. Ratio iodine over water is 1:5

Dab cotton of iodine to wound as well

Meganex spay which you can get at vet or pet store. It is very useful to shoo away flies which may cause maggots at wound. 

Spray Meganex onto cotton pad.

Dab cotton of Meganex AROUND the wound. NOT on the wound.

Use gauze swab which has been mixed with iodine and place it on the wound. Then bandage kitty's head with crepe bandage.

While bandaging kitty's head over its ear, don't forget to cut a hole for its ear.

And that's Tigger sleeping in his cage. He will be caged til he is pink again.
