Gluesticks

How do you get super glue off of a cat?

Hi. My cat decided to chew on a tube of super glue and now her mouth is glued together on the right side. Her check is stuck to her teeth and she is not eating. I tried to use WD-40 to release the glue, but its not working. Should I just pull it as hard as I can, or try to cut around it?

1. pull
2. im srry but thats pretty funny. I say you need to call your vet.
3. Take her to a vet if the wd-40 didn't poison her already.
4. No don't anything more your cat ,take your cat to the vet immediately
5. This is something the vet needs to look at and right away. Do not try to do this on your own. You could hurt your cat's mouth. Please, take her to the vet ASAP, Do NOT use nail polish remover under any circumstances as some are suggesting, as this is toxic as is WD-40.
6. LOL, you'll need to shave the cat and take it to a VET right away! Good luck! Don't pull on it, you'll hurt the cat!
7. THREE WORDS: VET,RIGHT,and NOW!!!!
8. The only thing I've known to release super glue is acetone (polish remover) but because its around her mouth it may not be safe, just be cautious, perhaps use a Q-tip
9. if you pull it you might rip off it's skin or something like that you might cut the cat accidentally if yu try to cut around it i would take it to a vet because it might have also swallowed some of it.
10. Try boiling water.
11. don'y try to take care of it yourself go to a vet. Superglue can be taken off everyday objects with nailpolish but that could poison your cat! Take him to the vet. I hope he gets it off.
12. You nee to have the VET take care of the problem. Whad you do can harm the cat.. WD-40 is toxic. You could try nail polish remover, but a call to a VET should help! They do give free consultation, or call your local animal shelter.
13. take it to the vet so that they can numb it and it wont hurt!
14. Take the cat to the vet right away. Don't try using anymore chemicals on her; you shouldn't have done so already.
15. How could you be so irresponsible to even suggest pulling on her injured mouth.? Take her to a vet and get some responsible help, then give the cat to a cattery where she will find someone who will care for her properly. You should not be a cat owner.
16. Thanks for the wind up Mr. Sniffy! And, don't forget to take your "cat" to the vet. Good Luck!
17. uhh...thats a hard one. if u cant wash it off u might just need to shave ur cat or cut its fur.
