Skin Reconstruction in Cats

Optimal treatment for your cat requires a combination of home and professional veterinary care. Follow-up can be critical, especially, if your pet does not rapidly improve. Administer all prescribed medications as directed. Alert your veterinarian if you are experiencing problems treating your pet.

Follow your veterinarian's instructions for wound and bandage care explicitly. Reconstructive surgery can fail if your cat is allowed to do things he shouldn't be doing like running, licking at the stitches and getting the bandage wet.

Have regular follow-up visits with your veterinarian as recommended. Healing is a dynamic process and the course of treatment can change as the wound changes.
