Aesinophilic Granuloma- Linear. In Kitten

[Athenaglaukopis]

Hey guys, my kitten has aesinophilic granuloma linear ( diagnosed via biopsy). She was given steroids and went down. We had just moved so we though it could be an environmental factor. Now, the lesions are coming out again.
This kind of granuloma present in a kitten indicates that is genetic, so I’m not sure how to help her but we are trying to avoid more steroids as they have side effects.

1- if you have a cat with this condition, do you have any advice?
2- I have another 4 kitties, and I’m thinking about starting an elimination diet. I though about trying wysom anergen, any recommendations?

Sorry never heard of it. Hopefully someone has.

Hi. sorry to hear about your little girl. I had never heard of this before so I did an internet search to read about it - see article links below**. Although they are titled with EG Complex, the articles also discuss linear. I also searched this site for other members who may have experienced this with their cats, and found the following threads, in case they might contain some information you would find helpful.

OP has not been back in about a year and a half, so I doubt that you will get an answer.

Did you by chance search the link of other TCS threads that I provided back then? I found out that this link now also includes more current posts/threads - maybe they will be of some benefit?

C cocopuff14 - the other thing you could do is to provide all the information you can here and see if that helps anyone come up with some other ideas. Information more specific to your situation might help. Just trying to find ways to see if we can help.
