how much does it cost to get a claw embedded in a cat's paw taken out?
This happened to my cat before, her claws don't get clipped often and sometimes one starts to grow into her paw. I need to get it removed but I am very short on money. If I took her to the vet how much would it cost?
And no it's not because I want to sacrifice not having money for my own things, I can barely pay the bills and do not have much cash to spare for anything.
Usually with a little help you can get it out yourself. It is easier if you can get someone to help hold the cat and paw. Soak the paw by wrapping a warm, wettish cloth that has been soaked in Epsom salts. With a very sharp pair of scissors (VERY SMALL) like nail scissors, clip the nail midway between the nail bed and the pad, avoiding the quick (the whitish pink part that comes out from the paw.) Gently tug the claw in the direction of the the claw -- in other words don't pull straight out, but in the direction of the curve of the claw. Clean with a little hydrogen peroxide and just make sure the paw doesn't get infected from the litter box. If it bleeds, just hold a clean wad of tissue on it until the bleeding stops. I've taken many a claw out of a cat's paw and after the first couple, you get the hang of it and it isn't as hard.
At the vet it really shouldn't cost much -- pretty much the cost of the visit which will depend on the costs in your area. It would be $45 at my vet.
If you don't have cat clippers, invest in a good pair. Keeping a kitty's claws clipped is a good idea for a lot of reasons.
Good luck.
