Active, prompt, they aim to get into some trouble. But owners always have to know how to give first aid to the pet before consultation of the doctor.

Choked

In this case the animal rubs a muzzle a paw, rushes about, shouts, chokes, tries to swallow something or , on the contrary, to pull out, and even faints.

For first-aid treatment it is necessary to examine a mouth and to get a foreign subject fingers or tweezers. If something got stuck in a throat, then it is necessary to put an animal on knees a stomach down, sharply, but not strongly to knock it on a back, then to overturn and press fingers in the district of the region of edges towards a thorax. At such manipulation all superfluous has to leave a throat in a mouth.

If the foreign subject got into a stomach, then it is necessary to force the fluffy friend to accept 3–4 spoons of vaseline oil or 5–6 spoons of vegetable. Well and, of course, at once bring it to the veterinarian.

Got poisoned

The snake bit

It is impossible to wash a wound with water, as well as it is impossible to put ice. It is necessary to impose a plait above a sting and to weaken it approximately in an hour.
