Frostbitten cat

Added by Kent Pegorsch on

Last winter someone found a cat that had been left in the cold and brought it to a local Waupaca Veterinarian.  The cat’s front paws were severely frostbitten and they thought they were going to have to amputate them.  

Before amputating, the vet's office had a jar of Dancing Bear honey in their kitchen.  They used the honey as a wound dressing, applying it and wrapping the cats paws.  The cat made a complete recovery.

Thanks to our local vet for thinking of the healing power of honey!


Due to privacy concerns, we hired an actor cat to stand in for our cold feline friend.
