Hi everyone,
Meet Teemo, my handsome little commercial kitty whom is very sick. I'm not entirely sure if this is where to post asking for help or what to do but I wanted to take the chance in case anyone has seen anything like this before.
Teemo is nearing 3 years old as of this year. He was incredibly healthy and showed no complications other than a bit of a leaky eye up until Christmas last year (2014). It started with thinning of the hair above his eyes and a couple of lesions, I thought it was maybe the breed or that he had gotten into a brawl with his sister, Ahri. In January, it traveled to his ears where it scabbed and crusted off the hair. He also had a lot of brown/black crusting on the insides of his ears. I took him to the vet and she ruled out anything to do with mites and ringworm because I show no signs and neither does Ahri or my other roommate. It has now traveled to beneath his eyes and around his nose.
Ahri and my roommate recently moved out (Saturday). I have switched his food to a sensitive stomach kibble and have switched to an almond based natural litter (in case of dust allergy). I have thoroughly cleaned my house as well. He is eating and drinking normally, he's also very vocal and attention-seeking seeing it's just me and him now. He is currently on Baytril, Dexamethasone, and Surolan (hence he's a little greasy). I am praying this is not Pemphigus - the rest of his body is fine, he has no scabbing or lesions around his nipples or nail buds.
Please, any advice or suggestions are more than welcomed. I do not want to lose my little man.
Thank you for your time,
Kizz
