Does My Pet Need A Recovery Shirt Or Sleeve
There are many medical pet shirt and sleeve options, and all sorts of situations in which they can be useful – for the wellbeing and peace of mind of your pet, and yourself!
Your Pet’s Medical Needs
There are countless different situations that can make a pet shirt or pet sleeve a must-have – just think of all the times you would previously have fitted them with an awkward cone of shame!
Now there’s a far better option for most of those cases: the medical pet shirt or pet sleeve, which drastically improves comfort and healing, and decreases stress.
It’s impossible to list every potential condition, but some of the most common uses for medical pet shirts and sleeves include:
- Post-surgery – To keep the area clean, stop the pet from licking the surgical site, avoid infections, and prevent the stitches from being chewed.
- Protecting injuries – If an area has been cut or grazed and you want to protect it for better healing.
- Skin conditions and ‘hot spots’ – There are a number of skin conditions that can affect your pet. Most of them require treatment that the pet (and any other animals) mustn’t lick, and the area should be kept covered but breathable.
