Bleeding from cat nail clippings may cause infection. Generally, the amount of bleeding from cat nails is not too large. As long as the bleeding is treated correctly, the bleeding is stopped in time and disinfected, there will be no infection. If the owner does not help the cat treat the affected area and the cat’s nails are stained with water or dust, it is very likely to become infected.

Methods for treating bleeding from cat nail clippings

1. Press to stop bleeding. Generally, you can use paper towels or gauze and press it on the cat's bleeding nails. The bleeding will stop in about three minutes.

2. Use hemostatic drugs. There are pet-specific styptic powders that can effectively and quickly help cats’ nails stop bleeding. If styptic powder is not available, Yunnan Baiyao can be used instead.

3. Disinfect and reduce inflammation. Use iodophor to disinfect the wound, spray anti-inflammatory drugs to prevent infection, and bandage the affected area if necessary.
