A few months ago I took one of the cats to the vet for sores that he got from itching. It turned out he had not only sores on his neck, but feline acne and possible some sort of paw fungus too. (I thought it was all the same thing) It all started right after he got vaccinated (which he reacted badly too). The vet thought that he had allergies so he was tested for them. He was cleared from environmental allergies and since that meant he probably had food allergies I was told to put him on a special food and see if it got better. He switched foods and I started treating his acne and he was back to his normal self.
Now he's got a big sore (smaller now since I put a cone on him so he can't scratch it) under his chin and he's got some hair loss on some places where he used to, before the treatment and food switch. What I'm wondering now is if his allergies are flaring up or if it's something else. Could he have developed environmental allergies as well? At what point should I take him to a vet?
I would be happy for any help I could get!
