Minor Surgery

[Natrix]

Would it be possible for some of the more experienced Members to start a photographic tutorial on the subject of minor first aid procedures that can be completed at home rather than a very costly visit to a verterinary surgeon. IE: Draining lumps, treatment of wounds etc... Along with a list of what equipment and medication should be in the first aid kit? Rather than have individual posts that get scattered through out the forum. THIS IS NOT a replacement for proper veterinary care, but there are threads on this subject and I think they should be placed all together as a reference?

Here's part of what you're asking for.

Thanks steve, I have seen this before in a previous thread. My question is that, Would it be possible to place everything in thread, make this a permanant 'Sticky' Item that can be easily accessed by all at any time for future reference?

Is there a way we can make a first aid sheet and list it like we do the caresheet? I know most members bookmark the caresheet. I honestly don't even know how to link to the caresheet...I have it bookmarked.

Marnie, It's on the home page under site navigation;)

Rod...thank you...I think that has been put up since I bookmarked what I have now...that actually looks different than what I have...it looks like it has been updated. I didn't even see it there! Right under my nose. :rolleyes:

I like the idea of a sticky post with links to good threads and pics of diseases and treatments. Very useful when a mentor is not available.
