This is the cat at our shelter that I have mentioned.



I'm looking for suggestions on her nose. I've seen her rubbing her paws on it, although it didn't look excessive. She was apparently a Katrina kitty, but I don't know for sure if she was trapped or brought out by her family. I think the latter.

My first suspicion is a flea allergy.

I sent you a PM.
At first I was thinking of suggesting something but then realized what a bad idea that would be given several possibilities, so after a lot more thinking I sent you a PM.

oh gosh! That poor girl
I honestly have no idea what could cause that, but I hope you find the cause and get her fixed up

Ringworm first check for. Mange is possible. She could've just rubbed her face raw on a trap or cage - often kitties do rub fur off when first coming to be caged.
