I have been using stridex pads on her chin and it is
starting to look better. I have changed her dishes.
I didn't take her to the vet because she gets really
scared (bless her heart) but I described it to the

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

Hi Cindy,
It sounds like feline acne. Do you use plastic dishes? There are other
conditions that resemble it. It's good that you are keeping it clean,
her chin can become infected if you don't take care of it. Here's the

Thanks I will do that. All of her bowls are plastic.
I will go get new ones tonight.

I noticed last night that my older kitty Madison has a
some fur missing under her chin. When I looked at it
closer it looked like tiny black pieces of dirt in the
fur that was left. It looked like flea dirt. She
never goes outside but I know we can bring in fleas.
I haven't noticed her scratchi
