Proper Cat Bite Treatments

Our cats can sometimes bite us. This may not mean that they are pretty rebellious cats, but if they get excited, they tend to react in a sudden way and bite us. This is why playing roughly with our cats can be very dangerous. Even if they are all quiet and tamed, if they sense danger, they can fight back with their canine teeth as their weapon. It is quite usual to pet owners to get bitten with their cats. Just make sure that you know all the procedures on how to cure it.

The first minute we got bitten, we have to immediately wash it. It will get rid of any dirt to get inside our skin. We need to thoroughly clean the wound as much as possible. Using soap and water will be enough. After that, if there is bleeding, we have to hold the wound and push into it so that the bleeding would stop. Place the wounded hand up above the heart area. That way the blood flow will slow down a bit and the bleeding will cease.

If we didn't give our cats rabies shots before, we have to be rushed to the hospital. Pets that are not given rabies shots eventually have dangerous saliva and if we got bitten, it would put us to risk. The doctor will then give us initial tetanus shot. This will help our immune system to fight the infection that may occur due to the cat bite.

We need to be aware of any signs of serious infections. If the wound did not stop swelling, then the infection or the rabies must have spread into our body. This stage, we have to be brought into the hospital. We need to do this before we get fever. That is a sign of a deathly rabies infection.

We can avoid these from happening if we decided to give our cats rabies shots from the very first time. If we have them shot, then even if we got bitten, there would be no risk of any rabies infection. We should be aware of the dangers we can get when we have pets.

Now, if we are trying to scare and play tricks with our cats, we need p make sure we will not get bitten. Actually, cats can be very nice and well behaved provided that we do not play too hard on them that may react wildly. Also, we need to give them what they need. They probably bit us because we didn't give them food and they get hungry.

Those are the possible ways we can do to prevent getting cat bites and the cures for it if ever it happens.
