Hi there and welcome!!

I've dealt with many, many hot spots in my life but they have all been on my dog, not on my cats (knock wood!). I looked up what will help and found this

I hope this helps. Poor kitty- get well soon!!

Kat thanks so much for the link!!! yes, this will help. it seems i'm doing the right stuff, just not with the best stuff. i do have the recommended cleanser and creams available so i'll just make the switch.....thanks again!!!
