Hi, over-worried cat mama here
Two questions on two different kitties:
Pickle Kitty: he had a reeeally bad case of chin acne a month or so ago. We took him to the vet once the blackheads turned into sores, got him on prednisone for a month, antibiotics, and ointment. It's looking much better, but he still has some sores that open up and bleed and a couple white and blackheads. It's been a month! Should it be healed by now? Is it just ongoing forever? I feel so bad for him.
Mitsu Kitty: She had spay surgery on Monday and hasn't bothered the incision site at all since I've kept her in the dreaded cone any time I can't watch her or she's not being fed. She is very active, despite all our best attempts, so I'm a little worried that the lump below her stitches could be something bad. It's not discolored or anything, but there's a tiny little hard lump just below the stitches. It doesn't hurt her when I touch it or press a bit, and it feels like fluid. Is this something I should worry about or will it go away?
this year has been full of vet visits and posts to this forum, so thank you all for the help
