The kit is housed in a compact, lightweight box for ease of storage and portability, making it suitable for use both at home and when travelling.

The contents include a range of tools and supplies to support immediate care for cats in distress. One pair of large nitrile gloves is included to act as a barrier between the handler’s hands and the cat’s bodily fluids, and to minimise the risk of contaminating open wounds with bacteria from human skin. A foil blanket is provided to help maintain the cat’s body temperature following injury, particularly when the incident occurs outside.

A Resusciade is included as a basic tool to support resuscitation efforts if the cat has stopped breathing. A tick twister is provided to remove ticks embedded in the cat’s skin without leaving parts behind. A 5 cm x 4 m conforming bandage is included and is suited for use as a base layer or to treat sprains.

One set of metal tweezers is included for the removal of small or thin objects such as thorns that may become lodged in the cat’s skin. A 5-inch pair of scissors is also included; these can be used to cut bandages or to free the cat if it is entangled or caught in an object. A sterile gauze swab measuring 5 cm x 5 cm is also present in the kit, and it may be used to cushion an open wound, protect vulnerable tissue, and maintain hydration in the affected area.

Two sterowipes are included and may be used to clean wounds or the cat’s face. Two 20 ml units of sterile eye and wound wash are also provided. This wash can be used to flush out foreign material from a cat’s eyes or from open wounds, aiding in the immediate cleaning and protection of affected areas.

A cohesive bandage measuring 2.5 cm is designed for holding other dressings or bandages in place and is self-adhering without the need for additional fasteners. A pet CPR guidance leaflet is included in the kit, offering detailed, step-by-step information on how to perform CPR on a cat. The Cat First Aid Kit is assembled with specific components that provide practical support to cat owners during common emergencies that may arise due to environmental hazards, minor accidents, or unexpected health events.

Each item has a clearly defined use to address individual elements of basic first aid care, offering temporary support until veterinary help can be obtained. Compact dimensions of the box make it convenient for use during travel, visits to outdoor areas, or as standby equipment in the home. The inclusion of both cleaning materials and tools for wound dressing allows for immediate response to a variety of minor first aid situations, including tick removal, dressing of small injuries, or clearing debris from sensitive areas such as the eye.

The contents are intended for use under human supervision and should be used in accordance with instructions provided in the guidance leaflet where applicable. The gloves are suitable for maintaining hygienic handling throughout the care process, and the inclusion of basic resuscitation equipment reflects primary considerations for first-response measures. The foil blanket offers essential thermal regulation if the cat is injured outdoors during colder conditions or has gone into shock.

The conforming bandage and cohesive bandage included offer flexibility in dressing wounds or supporting sprains, and the tweezers and scissors complement these materials by enabling the safe removal of debris or the adjustment and application of dressings according to the requirement. The sterile swabs and eye and wound wash further support wound hygiene and foreign object expulsion from sensitive regions. The product does not include medications or pharmaceutical items and is focused on simple, functional equipment for tending to basic feline first aid scenarios.

The box’s compact nature means it can be stored in areas such as a pet travel bag, vehicle, or kitchen cabinet for quick access during urgent situations. The inclusion of written guidance ensures the kit can be used effectively even by those with limited prior experience in administering pet first aid. Each item is positioned in the kit according to immediate usability to ensure the user can access required components quickly.

The overall aim of the kit contents is to provide a practical toolset for stabilising a cat in the moments before professional veterinary support is obtained. The product is a non-pharmaceutical item and does not contain controlled substances or regulated treatments. All included materials are designed for non-invasive use and should be used with care to avoid further injury.

The kit is suitable for inclusion in general pet kits, travel supplies, or for those administering basic care to domestic animals.
