Hi guys,
I put flea medication on my cat's back 2-3 weeks ago. We left for a short
vacation (4 days) and when we returned, she had this big sore on her back about
the size of a quarter. The hair and top layers of skin were gone, and it was
just raw skin, so I started spraying Bactine on it. After a few days of that,
I could tell it was infected, so I put her on antibiotics (Clavamox), and the
infection (pus) went away. I also started putting topical antibiotics on it.
But even after several days of this, it is still not scabbing over! I am
fairly sure it's a reaction to the flea meds, because my dog had the same
reaction a few weeks before, but Bactine worked great on her. Although, it
could be a spider bite or something else. Any ideas on what I can do for her
now or what might be causing it? What about liquid skin? Has anyone used the
human formula on their cats? I know it's not ringworm. I know what that looks
like and it's not this! I can send a
pic to anyone if you think you might be able to help by looking at the sore. I
don't want to wrap gauze around her b/c she will just tear it off. Thanks guys!
Thanks,
:)
