Looking for Someone Experienced in Bandage Changes on Cats
Monday, January 1, 2024 at 8:21AM Our rescued cat Bogart had to have a toe removed on Friday and we need to change his bandage tomorrow and then again 3 days later. I am hoping there is someone on island who has experience with this and who would be kind enough to drop over today sometime and assist/supervise us. It will be seriously appreciated.
