One of my grandma's cats has miliary dermatitis. This started this summer when she had a bad flea outbreak. We've been keeping on top of it with the Frontline, and I'm pretty sure all the fleas are gone now. The vet gave the cat a Depo-Medrol shot and a round of Baytril (yes, same vet as the other thread I made.....ugh), which helped for a bit but poor Gracie still looks pretty miserable.
So is there anything else that can be done? She really is very itchy and her back end is all bumpy and crusty. I hate to resort to steroids but I'll take her back to the vet for another Depo shot if it will help. Will bathing do anything? If so, what kind of shampoo?
