cat with scabs
hello ive had my cat for a little over 4 yrs. now. i got her as an adult
from a friends backyard. i always noticed that she had a lot of dandruff and scabs on her head and neck but never really knew what it was. Her vet told me that i needed to get her tests that i couldnt afford and i was wondering if anyone had ever seen something like this and could help me out. any help would be appreciated greatly thanks. |

If I were you, I would also try alt.med.veterinary Is it in and around her ears too? Does it take fur with it when a scab comes off? Does she have sneezing fits? Respiratory problems? My cat's disease might have been misdiagnosed as pemphigus first before it was diagnosed as eosinophilic granuloma complex. That was 5 years ago. After treatment, we have been using a high-quality air filter. She's doing marvelously better nowadays but she is at least 10 years old and has developed another occasional symptom that sounds like she is trying to clear her sinuses. I suspect shampooing the carpets will help, will see. Good luck. |
