Guest guest Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 Thank you, Angela--It's really nice of you to write with suggestions and empathy He doesn't like having his paws touched, but I'm definitely going to try putting ice out next few times he looks like his paw is troubling him & see if it helps. Thanks for the great idea! Peace, Maureen Angela wrote: > That poor baby! Will he let you ice the paw? Maybe an ice cube in a shallow dish to bat around, if it eases the pain he'll surely put his paw on it. if cold doesn't help maybe one of those rice filled heat packs you warm in the microwave would,( I'd test in on my own skin to be sure it's not to hot) don't know if either will help but won't hurt to try and might help. I'd rather be in pain myself than have one of my furbabies be in pain!! > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 Yr welcome, the suggestions came from ZsaZsa , my oldest kitty, she loves playing with an ice cube, and when I bring out the heat pad for my achy bits she's right there demanding I make room for her on it too!! such funny critters, we're so lucky they choose to love us!!

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 Good question, but I guess you must have missed the start of this thread - these are all rescue cats who had been declawed prior to being rescued. How anyone could choose to mutilate an animal in this way is a mystery. Christie , Orus Moon <orusmoon11 wrote: > > > Why was this cat declawed in the first place?
