Does anyone know where to find protective leather gloves that cover the entire arm? I'm about to start fostering for a rescue and they suggested it might be a good idea to have these for those 'upset' kitties who lash out. :)

Thanks!

You may want to post that question here too. Maybe somewhere there will know.

Hmmm. I don't know. I have some leather welding gloves that come up fairly high, but only because they're a little too big for me. They don't cover my whole arm. They do give pretty good protection though.

Try Home Depot, Lowe's, or Menards for work or garden gloves.

I've seen them at a lot of welding stores. There should be a specialty welding store in your city or a big one around it. Also some pet stores, with large birds, have gloves like that and would know where to find them.

gloves for pruning roses come up pretty high.
