Gecko that was attacked by your cat?
Geckos have a very fragile exterior and if wounded, can take months to heal. If your gecko has an open wound it is best to keep it moist. Non scented Petroleum jelly works great to ensure the wound does not become infected. Please refrain from using something that can ultimately dry the wound out more, such as peroxide. If the animal is unable to move, eat/drink, or use the restroom, it is best to bring the animal to an expert.
