Is anyone out there at cat specialist that may know like skin problems?
I have a male indoor cat who is little over a year old. For several months now he has a skin condition that makes him constantly nibble & lick & scratch himself & his hair is falling off in large areas like his tummy around his neck on his hind legs.I have had him looked at by several different vets. One tells me one thing the other tells me different I have spent several hundreds of dollars already & we still have this problem going on. We have tried medication, spray, skin tests & also I use advantix for fleas & still no cure, “Do You Know How To Help Me”
My cat has dandruff and other skin problems?
I have a black cat that has severe dandruff, it is irriataing her so much she is sctrachting until she bleeds and even starting to pull out clumps of hair. I have treated her and my house for fleas. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I have taken her to the vet countless times and all they do is give her a cortisone shot which helps for a couple of months, but recently I was told in the long run this will damage her liver so I need other solutions.

What’s the best way to look after a 16 yr old cat with pain in hip area & skin problems?
Im a little concerned about my cat, she’s 16 years old & apart from being the victim of a v.nasty dog attack 10yrs ago we’ve had no problem with her health (apart from her being v.paranoid if you touch the area she was bitten).
She seems perfectly ok but Im concerned about her weight (she was the runt of the litter & is very thin), she’s very active & occasionally falls if jumping. She also seems to have nibbled some of her fur away near her hip - I was told it was due to fleas but we’ve blitzed her & cant find any trace of fleas…only rather sensitive looking skin.
When you stroke her if you touch her below her ribs she hisses & scratches - I know her old attack scars are there but am concerned about her hips.
My Mum thinks she could’ve just developed sensitive skin & maybe a bit of cat arthritis in her hips.
Can anyone enlighten me as to what the problem’s likely to & what the average lifespan for a domestic cat is?
Please note: If you’re going to suggest that I have her put down dont bother commenting!
I do not believe in destroying perfectly happy animals who seem to be relatively healthy.
