About three years ago when Lily was one I lived with a friend and she brought home a new kitty. A few months after the addition lily started losing hair on her face and it was very red, looked like it was bloody. The new kitten was infested with fleas and I thought perhaps Lily was allergic to them. I took her to the vet and they told me it looked like a rug burn. Lily and I moved from the apartment a few months later and her face cleared right up.
Well, I got a new kitten a few months ago, and the same thing is happening to Lily. This time it is under her lip. Neither one of them has fleas. I called a vet and the lady told me that it could be stress. She said to put neosporin on it and call in a few days if it gets worse. My poor baby. Her and the kitten sleep together and eat together but I notice that Lily doesn't have a minute of peace when the kitten is awake. I can't play with her nor does she sleep on me anymore. Is this unhealthy for Lily. She is like my child and I don't know how to relax her. I am completely torn up. Suggestions would be wonderful.
