Oh Tamara! Don't be sorry, I'm glad to know there may be a problem. Where did you hear Aloe is deadly to cats!? I could have sworn it was my holistic vet that told me to use aloe! Oh man, that's scary! If that's the case, I need to give her a call and let her know to stop telling people to use it. I'm very fortunate, because I know for a fact that Gypsy did ingest some.

Aloe, ingested is deadly to cats! -at least the aloe plant is and if the cat is festidious about getting it off.... Prob. not a good idea, sorry Nina, unless you can restrain the cat for a day or so after treatment to make certain it does not wipe off and lick paw!Tea Tree oil, in small amounts, applied daily, is very healing for the skin - human and animal- but check with vet first.You would be better off with Neosporien (sp?) or call the vet for an over the counter topical you can apply that won't be too bad if licked off.

Just how bad are these sores? If you're not too worried about
infection, I'd use aloe first. Make sure you get the aloe gel that's
100% aloe with no additives, (read those labels!). That way if she
licks at it, there's no harm. I used aloe when Gypsy had sores and it
helped. Have you called your vet about this yet?
