What can I do if my cat cut its tongue?

Answer by  tofuturk (581)

A cut on the tongue can bleed excessively. A vet can determine if stitches are needed or if surgical glue can be used. The cat will have to be sedated to treat. He may also need antibiotics to treat any possible infection. In rare cases the tongue may need amputation.

If your cat cuts it tongue, place her in a quiet room , with clean water, try to avoid giving her any hard dry food until it heals, stay with moist food. If you find she is not eating for a few days or she becomes distressed see your vetrinarian.

If it doesn't appear to be in pain and it's still eating you can probably just keep an eye on it, otherwise take it to the vet.

If your cat cut its tongue, there is very little you can do other that waiting for it to heal. Feeding your cat liquids for a few days will give the tongue a rest and allow it to heal faster.

It should heal on its own. If it is a large cut (like has severed the tongue in half) take it to a vet or at least call to see whats happened to it. Also make sure it does not get infected so keep an eye on it. Call your vet to make sure about this though.

If there is not a lot of bleeding, just let them be, it will heal on its own. If it is serious, take them to a vet.

Not much except to watch for signs of infection and make sure the injury doesn't interfere with normal eating and drinking due to soreness. A vet can help too.
