Hi!
I am planning to make a first aid kit for my kitten, in case he ever needs it. What supplies would need to fill it with?

Kitty Kit

■First aid scissors
■Tweezers
■Clean soft towel
■Protective thick leather work gloves
■Cat muzzle (+/-,, available from your veterinarian)
■Rectal thermometer: digital or traditional
■Sterile jelly or petrolatum
■Small flashlight
■White adhesive tape
■Gauze squares
■Cotton balls
■Alcohol-isopropyl
■Hydrogen peroxide (3% concentration)
■Non-sticky wound dressing squares
■Stretchy bandage
■Roll of cotton gauze bandage (1” size)
■Antibacterial soap
■Sterile saline flush solution (human eye wash, nasal cavity wash--preservative free)
■Cotton tipped applicators
■Karo syrup
■Splint support (coffee stir stick, doctor’s tongue depressor stick)

Everyone who shares a home with a cat should have on hand a basic feline first-aid kit.

It doesn't look too large in size looking at the size of the sissors compared to the bag. I also like that it has sterile medical equipment in it should I need it.

The point of the syringes etc is so that if I need treatment I can ask them to use my equipment so that I know that it is sterile.
But don't you think its better to be safe than sorry? I am going to be about 7 or 8 hours away from any private hospitals.

if this sign £ means dollars i think its to expensive
you could just make your own aid kit
other than that yea i think the kit is great
if you need you should put some important medicine it it like Tylenol or Advil

i have Bella my puppy & Rowdy my cat.
the kits i've seen in shops are expensive & dont contain much at all.

So could someone give me a list of the items i would need?

Thanks

look on the first aid kits at the store to see what you need... I cant come up with much of a list.. but its a start.

gauze pads
gauze rolls.
some kind of surgical tape
vetwrap, or ace bandages. vetwraps available at a local feed store
tweezers
scissors
clean towel or rags
popsicle sticks for splints maybe?
gloves

sorry not much help but its an idea.
