scrapes

[cazimauw]

is there anything to put on cat's scrapes because my cat is paralyzed and drages her paws across the floor scraping them open we now put on socks but they fall of now and then and before you know it she is bleeding again, i'm afraid it is going to get infected

thanx in advance

You just need to keep it clean, mild soap and water is best before you can take her to the vet and come up with a better solution as well as a vet recomended cleanser.

i have been keeping it clean but thanx anyway.

You could purchase, or probably even make something like this for her.
This site also has carts (wheelchairs) available

In the meantime, you might try getting some Vetrap (http://www.3m.com/US/healthcare/prof.../petProd.jhtml) to cover her paws and protect them. It shouldn't fall off like socks.
