Specialist Cotton Blend Cast Padding has a unique micropleated design for excellent conformability, protection and ease of application without tucking or tearing. Features and Benefits Micropleated construction provides excellent conformability Highly absorbent Cotton rayon blend Easy application Review: Great for large bandages. - I have worked in the Veterinary profession for years and this is the cast padding that most hospitals stock. It is very soft, and is easy to roll on with out having to worry about it being too tight. It is very absorbent so if you put on a thick enough layer the outer layers it should absorb any moisture that it may come in contact and the layers closest to the skin will stay dry. The cotton can be pulled apart so when you are done applying you can easily separate the roll from the bandage. Use in conjunction with a tefla pad underneath as the cast padding will stick to a wound, and stretch gauze and/or vetwrap on top to hold the cast padding in place. The cast padding is just for padding and will not hold itself together. Wrap cast padding gently to ensure the bandage is not too tight. You should be able to stick 2 fingers under the cast padding if it is the appropriate tightness. Depending on the area you are wrapping, 1-2 rolls should be plenty to have an appropriately thick bandage so a pack of 12 should be enough for several bandages. The thicker the cast padding layer is the more supportive the bandage will be. I personally use these at home for my family and pets. Great for use on people and animals. Seller shipped quickly, packaging looked good. Review: Good quality padding - Used this padding to wrap my dog’s leg under a hard splint. It conforms well and gives good protection against sores. Would buy this again, it’s just like what’s used by veterinarians.

Great for wound care!
I have chronic cellulitis on my lower legs due to years as a diabetic. I would get wounds I I even just brushed up against something and if I had any fluid on my legs I would have to do a full compression bandage and wrapping the affected area without some type of padding between the skin and whatever you are using for compression can severely irritate the skin or even exacerbate the wounds. Using cast padding is much cheaper than ABD pads and is much easier than taping those pads to your legs. Aquacel or polymer, then tegaderm then you have all you need. Don't do this unless you have been shown by a wound care professional, this is not something you want to mess up on.

Specialist Cast Padding worked well with our Leonberger
Our old Leonberger (big dog) had to amputate a toe and he also got a big ulcerous sore on his leg. Therefore, he needed to have a large bandage for a long time. To reduce the number of times we had to visit the Veterinarian they showed me how to change the bandage. This is the cast padding the Veterinarian used and wanted us to use. They gave us some and we bought some more from Amazon. We put it on top of a Telfa pad (with Manuka Honey). It is soft and comfortable and holds everything in place. It should not be stretched as it will break. However, you put stretch wrap on top of which will tighten things up (but not too tight). The combination of this cast padding and the WePet-Vet-Wrap worked very extremely well. After a few months he healed.

Recommended for dog’s wound care
My dog had a bad wound on his leg and my vet recommended cast padding as one of the layers to make the dressing more comfortable against his skin. This product was not directly against a wound but provided a nice cushion. I wish they were individually packaged but I put the extras in a baggie and will add them to my nurse kit for future use.

Works great!
I bought this after my dog had a freak accident and sliced her leg really badly (severed her artery and tendon on a piece of broken glass.....kids, this is why parents say don’t leave your glasses laying out! She knocked it over with her tail and somehow jumped and stepped on it....I was half asleep and never knew it was there; kids left one out after I went to bed). Needed a lot of padding to help support her leg during tendon healing, also to deter her from putting weight on it. Works great and so much cheaper than even the cheapest version of this at local stores! Definitely recommend.

Soft on the skin
When I was searching for cast padding, I asked a question. Someone wrote back recommending this padding. I wish I could write and thank her. I use the padding to cover non-adhesive pads dressed with Bacitracin. The Specialist padding is so soft and very easy to wrap. I buy them every two weeks. I will always use this seller!

exactly what I need for my senior
My senior rescue developed a seasonal allergy that caused him to chew his leg open. We spent thousands on test to make sure it was nothing more serious when he wouldn't stop breaking it open and thankfully it was not, it had however become and OCD or anxiety type behavior. So i use this to wrap his leg for padding before using casting tape to keep him for continuing to hurt himself. I clean it up and moisturize it prior to wrapping and ensure to wrap it securely but not tight. Just need to make sure it doesn't slip and irritate his skin. It is easy to use and does the job!
