Sassy is a bobtail female that appears to have some Siamese in her. She is short hair. When we rescued her she was covered with small sores, a lot of which were scabbed over. We assumed mosquito bites since she came from a wet area near an old farm house. The renter fed her a dry kibble, brand unknown.
We took her to the vet who didn't have a clue so gave her the standard antibiotic shot and a shot of cortisone.
The sores cleared up in about two weeks but now (about another two weeks) are beginning to reappear.
They are about the size of small pencil eraser and apparently sore to the touch. They a red and then scab over. No oozing or draining.
Since the first bill was $135 anybody have any thoughts or ideas?
She such a sweet cat for a feral just captured but she needs help.
Previously we had her neutered and now she is fed raw chicken with wet cat food. We supplement with a kibble of blue buffalo and purine kitten chow. She has been inside since we bought her home and free from mosquitos.
Thanks in advance.
