Adopted a 3-year-old cat some months ago, and when I took him to the vet for some tummy issues, the vet said he was likely allergic to some foods, owing to the fact that he stopped eating, had diarrhea, and had feline acne on his chin. We've switched to a limited-protein diet, and by the process of elimination it seems that he's allergic to seafood. He seems to be all right with his current diet, which has limited and hyrdrolyzed proteins only—he's eating healthily, no more tummy issues, etc. However, the acne hasn't gone away, even after switching his food bowls to stainless steel. Also have tried using medicated shampoo, which has helped a little but hasn't cleared it up.
The cat doesn't seem bothered by the acne, and I've done all that the vet has recommended. Any of you have any experience with stubborn feline acne? Anything I can ask the vet to check for?
