‘Suture removal’ for a playful little kitty No matter how small or big the issue… we’re here to help.

Meet BamBam, the mischievous cat who ended up with a cut at the corner of the lip that needed stitches. Today, BamBam came in for suture removal at our Central Eastville branch. Many pet owners might think, “The wound looks healed, so it should be fine,” but in reality, suture removal is just as important as the stitching itself. If not done properly, leftover threads can cause infections or lead to the wound becoming inflamed again.To ensure your pet can return to daily life comfortably and without recurring issues, it’s best to have a thorough check-up with the vet before removing the stitches.
