Hi Everyone. Our cat has very dry paws. I am not sure if this is health condition, infection, or what. Can someone please advise us on what to do? We bought cream from Amazon that should arrive today. IMG_2349IMG_2353IMG_2354

Hello!   It is surprisingly common for cats to have dry paws - I think that central heating / household environments may be a contributing factor.  Sometimes bacterial, yeast or even fungal infections can be involved, so it's always worth showing these to a vet or nurse.  If they are otherwise happy with the paws, they may advise an appropriate veterinary moisturizer or household product to help to revitalize the skin, but we wouldn't advise putting anything on your cats' paws without running it past your veterinary team first.
