If your cat has rat glue on it, follow these steps:


1. Stay calm: First of all, stay calm and don’t panic. Even if your cat is feeling unwell, you need to provide him with a comforting and relaxing environment.


2. Do not pull with force: Never pull with force on the mouse glue, as this may cause pain or skin damage. Try to avoid further entanglement and sticking.


3. Find a way to remove adhesion: You can try the following methods to remove adhesion:

   - Use vegetable oil: Gently apply vegetable oil (such as olive oil, coconut oil or edible oil) on the mouse glue and let it soak for a moment to reduce the adhesion. Then, gently comb or wipe the cat's sticky area slowly with a fine comb or towel.

   - Soak in warm water: If vegetable oil is not effective enough, you can try soaking the sticky part in warm water. Be careful not to overheat the water to avoid scalding your cat’s skin. Let the cat soak in warm water for a while and slowly untie the stuck parts.


4. Seek help from a veterinarian or professional: If you are confused or unsure about removing the adhesion, or if your cat has any discomfort or skin damage, please contact a veterinarian or professional pet groomer for professional help in a timely manner.


Remember to be gentle and careful when handling to ensure your cat's safety and comfort.
