Hello everyone:
My cat Lucas has acne, the vet diagnosed it last week after treating him for Ear mites for some time. The vet thought he had earmites and he prescribed Tresaderm drops and also told me to get Feline Revolution for lucas, but the problem persisted. The vet examined him again and took samples and discovered that it wasn't ear mites, it is feline acne. Thank God is not very bad, but Lucas is itching a lot and he is loosing a little hair around his mouth and he has some black heads on his nose.
The vet prescribed an antibiotic, an antimicrobial cream that is almost impossible to get on Lucas, he also told me to change his food and water bowls to stainless steel and I did. And also he told me to change Lucas' food to Science Diet Sensitive skin dry food. The problem is I can't find the food, the vet ordered it and it hasn't arrived yet and its been three weeks, I hope I can get it soon.
Does anyone has dealt with this before?? I need to know if someone has had this problem too.
Thanks
Tamar
