After a cat is injured, it does not rely on sleep to heal itself. After a cat is injured, it sleeps because of physical pain and fatigue. After falling asleep, the wound on the body will not touch other things, which is conducive to the healing of the wound. A cat’s self-healing from injury is related to its own constitution. The better the constitution, the stronger the resistance and the faster it heals. However, if the cat is seriously injured, the owner still needs to take the cat to a pet hospital for medical treatment.

What the owner can do if he or she finds that the cat is asleep due to injury:

1. If the owner finds that the cat has a wound, he can first fix the cat’s body and then inspect the cat’s body according to the inspection. Wound treatment is performed based on the severity of the wound.

2. The owner can first clean the blood stains on the cat’s wound, shave short or shave the hair around the wound, remove impurities from the wound, and then use iodophor to disinfect the wound.

3. The owner applies a layer of PetSure on the cat's wound. If necessary, spread a layer of cotton on it, and then use sterile gauze to bandage the cat's wound. Pay attention to whether the wound is leaking fluid, and remove it promptly. Replace the gauze dressing.

4. While the cat is recovering from an injury, the owner should provide the cat with more nutrients to improve immunity and promote wound healing.
