Pacman needs help

What are you using to separate the "land" from the water?

I highly recommend a trip to the vet. The cuts are most likely infected if there is stuff being secreted from them. This could be life-threatening if not treated. In the mean time, you can put Neosporin on the cuts. It MUST be the type WITHOUT painkillers! You may need to do a "hospital settup" with just damp paper towels to keep the cuts from getting further infected or irrated.

A picture of your current settup would be helpful. Also, if you would answer the questions from the sticky thread "Trouble in the Enclosure." Make sure the lid is on tight so the cat can't get in again. Cover three sides of the tank to reduce visual distraction which can cause stress. It sounds like your frog is very stressed. When Pacs get stressed they tend to stop eating. They also may get listless and sometimes flip over onto their backs (which would explain why the cuts are on its underside). Even if the cat did not attack him, it was most likely still a VERY tramatizing experience for him. Crickets will also attack and bite frogs if not fed well. If you are not already doing so, make sure you remove any uneaten crickets each morning. With regards to his diet: I am not familar with "king worms." Nightcrawlers are a very good, nutritional staple diet. Goldfish are very fatty and often contain parasites and diseases so they are not recommended as a feeder fish. You say the frog has not been eating well for the past few months... can you give more specific details on how much/how often he/she is eating? Please keep us posted on how the frog is doing.

I was thinking this too, maybe for a different reason, but if you are using something, and it's sharp or rough[glass/rough stones/wood with splinters], maybe your Pacman accidentally cut itself crossing over?

I had to take out a rock from my frogs enclosure after I actually watched it roll over, just from them jumping on it, and was afraid it might squish or hurt them.

But GrifTheGreat pretty much said it all, a Vet sounds like what your frog may need.

Hope he/she gets better .

We have the cage sections separated with a piece of plexi-glass... all the rough edges have been sanded down...
We used non-toxic silicone to bond the plexi-glass to the tank.
