Attached are the photos of the aftermath :/, my girlfriend has a cat and i just realized she’s been scratching my pup. Do you think these will be permanent scars ? I’ve been applying aquaphor on it since yesterday
doubt it but can’t say for sure for you’re dog - cat scratches aren’t very deep. My cat scratched my puppy’s snout. She was missing a tiny bit of fur for a while so I wondered if really could be permanent. It’s normal now
that doesn't look bad. mild graze at best. i would keep them separated unless 100% supervised with the dog leashed to you to ensure the dog learns how to behave around the cat.
