Amazingly for the feline acne I use Benzol peroxide, a dab of the 5% generic cream or gel. But I have had such good luck with the stuff on my dogs hot spots also. We used it with great success for even bed sores when I worked with a dermatologist, so I gave it a try, My vet thinks it is just fine,

I just read on an herbalist's list serve that a very small amount of castor oil rubbed on feline acne is supposed to help. But I would get it diagnosed, and remove plastic dishes if it is. Then, if you want to read the herbalist's recs on this, let me know and I will find the link.

- Hi Cindy,
- It sounds like feline acne. Do you use plastic dishes? There are other

- If you suspect that's what she has, I'd treat it as acne. If it doesn't
