I don't have medical tape, is there any other tape I can use to wrap her foot when in done?
Im also going to try to make those booties... With hot glue.. Because I can't sew. Lol

It may take several soaks before the core loosens enough for it to be pulled. Work the edges first - where the skin meets the core. It would be good if you slathered her foot in some Neosporin - that'll help soften it between soaks. Makes sure it's the Original formula WITHOUT pain relief. The kind with pain relief can kill them.

I used pain relief when my duck had it....

The tape that sticks to itself called coband, and I personally would not use it. I have an allergy to adhesive, so they always use coband on me. I’m absolutely always told to remove it as quickly as possible because it is self-tightening. It’s okay with something like a splint or other hard item, but using it alone isn’t a good idea.

I’ve experienced the self tightening myself, it’s not comfortable.
