Transporting Injured Cats

Video Transcript

"Although Ace is happy and healthy today, he's going to help me demonstrate to you how you would apply some First Aid and get your cat ready to transport to the veterinarian if it were hit by a car. If you've seen your cat be hit by a car, you have any inclination that they have. If there's grease marks or there's some scrapes on the cat's fur and skin, then it's advisable that you see your veterinarian as soon as you can get an appointment. Often times, when an animal is hit by a car there are injuries inside the chest and the abdomen or the belly region that you can't see but can be very serious. So, it's always best to have them checked out. One of the things that you want to make sure, is that your cat doesn't bite you. Because, it's in pain from its injuries. So, in order to transport one of the things that you may want to do. Ace doesn't know what's going on here, is to wrap your cat in a towel. You can just put the towel over the kitty and scoop it up like this, so that you can hold it safely and it won't be able to squirm away."
