I accidently cut oscar (my oes) while trimming him. He's not bleeding but seems to have a deep enough cut just behind his ear. im beside myself with worry, my dh says he's fine but im crying my eyes out. is there anything i can put on it to prevent infection? My dh refuses to bring him to the vet help??? helen |

| I did that once! Try Neosporin on it. |
| Dont panic! Its easy to do. I did it cutting a matt out of a fluffy cat once. I felt really bad to but I didnt put anything on the cat and she healed up fine.
My vet recommends an antiseptic cream called Savlon here in Aus for any nicks or grazes. You can also use salty water. Not too strong or it stings if you havent got anything at home until you can get to the store. If its not bleeding much its probably not too deep. Just watch it to make sure it heals up ok. At least he cant lick it up there.  |
Owww! Don't feel too bad! First time I did my first dog, I burned his penis with the clippers.  I got over the guilt, but it took a while!
Neosporin (or Bacitracin) for a couple of days. |
| Thanks guys, I had savlon spray in the press so used it and went to check him first thing this morn and he seems fine although i still cant bring myself to look at that cut again.
Lots of attention for the next few days may cure my guilt.... Thanks again Helen & Oscar xx |
| With my Kelsey it was her paw pad, she moved as I snippled and I took a chunk out and it did not stop bleeding.
Dont worry it happens to all of us little accidents with scissors. Just keep it clean and it will heal up quickly. The guilts shall pass as well.  |
