Has anyone ever seen those weird cat paw stick things?

[FeralDragonChild]

I've seen some videos of people using some kind of glue stick looking thing on their cats paws.What the heck even is that

 

[FeralDragonChild]

I'm assuming some kind of balm or lotion maybe???

What do the videos say? Maybe if you share a video here on this site that might help? If it is on YouTube, you can copy the URL and use insert Media option to add. (The insert Media option is under the three dots in your post toolbar.)

Spookyspookuh on TikTok
I've seen some other videos where it's a stick too. I've just never seen anyone use something like that until recently.I think it's a thing in Japan too?

Who really knows. Some cats get dry paws for all sorts of reasons - they go outside on dry surfaces, for example. Mostly, cats don't need something like this until all medical related issues are ruled out.

Yeah my cat wouldn't need it.He gets really gross ears that are itchy for him but the vet gave us something for that

Huh. That would be a dandy thing for dry paw pads, hopefully it won't make them sick if they lick it, and there's no way on this green earth Poppycat would let me do that

It says paw balm right at the start of the TikTok video. Not sure if it's a "thing" since it's on social media but paw balms are available in pet stores. It helps soothe cracked dry paws, much like lotion does for our skin. Sled dogs probably use a lot of paw balm since they're running in harsh conditions even with booties on.

The video I saw originally I couldn't find and it hadn't said that
