  Mollie stood on a discarded cigarette end and burned her a pad on her front paw. Any suggestions what we can do to stop it being so sore for her? Doesn't look bad enough to bother the vet just a bit red.

  Pure 99 % Aloe Gel Molliepops. Available from Holland and Barrett in a tube (not expensive either). Always worth having a tube in anyway - its a natural antiseptic, good for sunburn, shaving rash, prickly heat and so on. I use it (with vet's approval) on my cat's eyes (she has allergies which cause swelling and irritation).

  Hibscrub is often used on animal wounds as well as humans.

  Poor Mollie
  If people must discard their ciggarette ends then the least they could do is put them out first :mad:
  I always step on any I see still alight, to stop dogs burning their paws and any other accidents, or incenduary (sp) incidents.
  Hope Mollie's feeling better soon Molliepops

  Thank you ! And yes it made me angry too - littering in general annoys me but anything that can harm animals or people makes me see red !
