Balto® Pull Cat – Carpal Hyperflexion
Ideal For:
- Feline hyperflexion or hyperextension of phalanges
- Cases of “drop foot” or knuckling in cats
- Neurological conditions affected paw placement
The Balto® Pull for felines addresses neurological disorders that cause severe proprioceptive deficits in cats. This feline Achilles tendon brace is a great solution for cats suffering from limited mobility following injuries to the hock/Achilles tendon. This breathable anchor strap, made with non-neoprene material, provides stability and support to your cat’s rear legs without compromising natural movement.
Brace Applications:- Dorsiflexion - when the cat is unable to sense the position of the limb on the ground and tends to stand on the top of its paw
- Damage to the sciatic nerve because of a fracture of the pelvis or femur; in order to ensure that the neurological problem does not lead to orthopedic damage due to shortening of the flexor tendons of the paw.
- Support neurological complications that affect the paw.
- Commonly used in combination with the Balto Hock Feline Brace for hock-to-paw support, actin to pull the canine toe up.
- Two toe bands provided with brace: one soft fitting for long-term and indoor use, and a harder fitting ideal for the outdoors and while using scratch pads.
- Adjustable upper straps can be adjusted on the leg to ensure an excellent fit
Comes in size xxs and xs for felines. To find the best size for your cat, visit the sizing chart here.

Non-neoprene
All Balto® braces are made from high-quality materials, not neoprene - which has been known to collect bacteria, provide inadequate support, and wear down quickly. A variety of sizes ensure a secure fit. No pinching straps.
For indoor-outdoor cats, please remove the brace prior to going outside. Okay for use outdoors when supervised.
Recommended for all ages unless otherwise advised by veterinarians. Apply brace for balanced increments of time, if appropriate, for pets under the age of 2 to prevent possible growth disturbances.

Maintenance & Repair
A clean brace not only prevents infections, irritation, and a stinky smell; but it also allows your brace to last longer. To help support the longevity of your bracing device, here are some of our tips on how to properly clean your orthopedic bracing:
- Remove as much hair as possible from any Velcro® frequently to prevent compaction.
- Use lint roller or lightly adhesive tape to remove hair from the material of the brace.
- By hand, use warm water and a gentle cleansing soap to remove any stains and odors.
- Rinse soap thoroughly from the brace
- Hang to dry. Once the brace is completely dry, it is ready for use!
