Hi all,
Thank you for taking the time to read this. I cannot think of what else I can do to help Katie and it is really heartbreaking to see her the way she is.
Katie is a rescue of around 6-8 years old.
For the past couple of years she has had a number of health problems that are now getting even worse. I've listed the problems she is having below:
Why am I posting this on here and not talking to a Vet about it?
We have tried to take her to several Vets however my experience has been the following:
Many thanks,
Katie's Friend
PS: I am including a few photos that show the red patches and scratches
Not sure if I can edit my post but I would like to add:
1. Katie is my Mum's which is 75 years old and not able to do much
2. I only see Katie once a every few months but recently moved closer hence I'm trying to do more

For the past couple of years she has had a number of health problems that are now getting even worse. I've listed the problems she is having below:
- Vomits around once or twice every other day
- Her stools usually contains blood
- In the past few months wherever she has been sitting she leave a trail of red patching after a while
- She has a big problem with Fleas and we've give her baths with out shampoo but also with some special shampoo and the fleas return after a few days
- We moved her to a different house after she was Flea free and she still managed to get Fleas
- She washes herself non stop
- She scratches and bites herself very frequently
- She eats cat litter
- Sometimes she urinates/poops outside of her litter tray
- She has patches and sores over her body
- She seems severely depressed
Why am I posting this on here and not talking to a Vet about it?
We have tried to take her to several Vets however my experience has been the following:
- Nothing is found in the examination
- When I try to explain the situation the Vets are always in a hurry and no one has taken onboard the symptoms
- They just prescribe anti-flea shoulder droplets which I have tried and no luck
- I had also kept a diary of vomits and stools for 2 months but that didn't seem any significant to the Vets
Many thanks,
Katie's Friend
