Have you ever had any of your cats with Feline Leukemia get scabs on them. One of mine had just a few around his neck for quite some time (even before we got feline leukemia tests results), and now he has got more on his body. Then either in rough housing or scratching himself, he pulled the scab off of two and they bled pretty bad. So I took him to the vet, cause I did not want to risk any infections with those open sores. She did not offer any diagnosis of the scabs---says lots of things could cause. But she gave him an injection of polyflex and gave me some medication (Clindamycin Drops) to give him 1 ml a day for 7-14 days. Now I am noticing these same scabs on the others as I pet them---but no bleeding with them so I have not taken them to the vet for any treatment yet. Everyone seems fine---eating, drinking, playing and using litter box. But the scabs have me a little concerned. With their feline leukemia, I don't want to let something get out of control if it could be serious. They do not have fleas---that is something both the vet and I checked for, and they have been treated for flea protection. Thank you, Karen
