Any cat people have advice on how to feed a cat wearing a cone? Poor Tommy had a bleedy toe and he's not allowed to lick it for three days.
He's currently walking into things and complaining, and looking sad.
If you get some coban tape (stretchy adhesive manage stuff) could you cover the paw so he can have some cone free time to eat? And some of those dine squeezy treats could work as a supplemental thing, you don't want him to go off his food. You can also get a soft collar that can squish up when he bumps into things.
Thanks! I'll look into coban tape. Squeezy treats have already been administered!
Apparently because it's his front paw, a soft collar will be too easy for him to get around. But it's only a couple of days, and he's already happier.
