    Default Help! How do I treat a burn?! 😩

    So this morning our rehab squirrel Wilbur jumped from my shoulder and onto our still hot stove. My husband had used it earlier and it had been turned off for a good bit but it's a ceramic cooktop and they take a while to cool off completely. Wilbur seemed fine from what I could tell but tonight I was checking him out and he has blisters on both front feet 😭 I FEEL TERRIBLE. I know he is in some pain because he seemed to be having some difficulty climbing. I'm worried about him being able to eat, infection, and I know he's in pain. I put some aloe on them but is there anything else I can do at this point?

    Do you have Tramadol?

    If not you can get INFANT ibuprofen at a pharmacy. We can dose it for you. We would need Wilbur's weight.

    What about burn spray? It's more so for pain but wanted to get your opinion? It's pretty much the only thing I have on hand right now besides the aloe. I'll be getting the infant ibuprofen and silvadene first thing tomorrow!

    I wouldn't use the spray. No telling what might happen if licked off paws.9

    Though I haven't used this, but have had occasion to use other homeopathic remedies orally that did work, this one, for Veterinary Wound Care - 1 oz. for topical use, noted for use for minor burns, looks promising. It does say for external use only though. Whether an animal licking this particular formula would pose an problem or not is somethign to inquire on this product from the manufacturer; 818-851-9014 is noted on the label.
