Yes, cats can get bed sores, also known as pressure sores or decubitus ulcers. These sores are caused by prolonged pressure on a specific area of the body, leading to tissue damage. To prevent bed sores in cats, it is important to provide them with a soft and padded resting area, regularly change their position, and ensure they have proper nutrition and hydration. If a cat develops a bed sore, treatment may involve cleaning the wound, applying topical medications, and providing supportive care to promote healing. In severe cases, veterinary intervention may be necessary.
Bed sores are painful, often red areas of the skin that are caused by the pressure of lying or sitting in the same position for too long. Bed sores must be treated and kept clean as they can become very infected. Bed sores are most common in the older generation.

There are two common types of ulcers: Stomach ulcers and pressure ulcers (bed sores). Stomach ulcers usually consist of stomach pain that gets worse after eating. These can be commonly treated with over the counter antacids. Pressure ulcers are most commonly found in people who spend multiple days in bed at a time. They are caused from putting pressure on bony areas for prolonged periods. These can be prevented by moving patients in a bed so that they do not put too much pressure on one area of their body for too long.
