So my cat got out and was missing for 6 days. When he came back to us he was dehydrated and had an unpleasant looking wound on his thigh. I took him to the pet urgent care for a saline shot and antibiotics and the next morning i took him in to get it all stitched up.
The issue is he wont really sit still, im afraid the skin here in his dry weather will dry up and crack. Do you think it is safe to put Petroleum Jelly -around- (not in) the wound. Ive heard stories that it isnt harmful for short amounts of consumption but im not too sure.
Think any of you could help me out?
