At the domestic level, the most common burns in dogs and cats are caused by hot water, stepping on ashes, electrical cables in poor condition or corrosive substances that cause damage. We give you some recommendations.

1. Lower the temperature. If due to negligence or bad luck happens, the first thing we should do is call a Veterinarian and listen to his instructions. Some general recommendations could be to try to lower the temperature in the affected area, since reducing it is essential so that it can be well cured, for which it is recommended to use cool cold water or saline.

Depending on whether the burn was caused by a corrosive substance, the doctor will recommend cleaning the affected area, so it is always important to call the specialist first before proceeding with any first aid. In case of emergency it is important never to give oral water to pets that may be with some commitment of conscience or even be unconscious; Only if the dog is fully alert is it possible to give him fresh water to improve his hydration, while drifting to the hospital or veterinary clinic.

2. Cover the burn. Once the temperature is reduced, the affected area should be covered with a sterile gauze with physiological saline, but without pressure. It must be borne in mind that a burn can cause the pet symptoms such as fever, dehydration or redness of the skin. The most frequent burns, that we will find in cases of fire, are burns of the pads, since when escaping they can step on land with hidden coals.

3. Food. Wet food, It can be given directly, and if the veterinarian requires it, it can also be supplied by a tube without the need for dilution, and since it is moist food it helps hydration.

4. Veterinary Consultation. Finally, it is vital to take the puppy or kitten to the Veterinarian. Only he can determine the severity of the burn and deliver the appropriate treatment for each particular case. Performing a complete clinical examination will also allow you to verify if there are internal burns of your respiratory tract, which do not necessarily show visible signs.

With cats and dogs domesticated with interior life, we must take special care because if they escape, they will most likely hide in the nearest house. Pets that live inside the home act differently than street dogs and cats.

The Veterinarian is the most suitable professional when recommending a recovery treatment for dogs and cats before burns.
