How long it takes for a cat to recover after being stepped on depends on the severity of the step and the cat’s treatment:

1. If it is a minor injury , it will only cause temporary pain to the cat, and it will recover immediately. In this case, the owner does not need to worry. He needs to check the extent of the cat's injuries and comfort the cat.

2. If the pain is moderate, it may take about a week to return to normal. During this period, pay attention to providing the cat with nutritional supplements. The more adequate the cat's nutritional intake, the faster the recovery of the feet.

3. If the injury is serious and causes a fracture, you need to take the cat to a nearby pet hospital for X-ray treatment. Pet owners are advised to take good care of their pets and not let their cats suffer such serious injuries.

4. If the cat is stepped on hard, it may cause a comminuted fracture that cannot be recovered. If a cat's comminuted fracture cannot recover, the pet owner should also take good care of the cat and not abandon the cat.
