Feline Acne
Most of you are probably reading the title and thinking “Really? Cats can get acne?”
The truth is cats can be victims of acne just as much as humans are. The causes of feline acne are the same as causes in humans: stress, food, and contact allergies. Plastic food dishes are suspected of having the worst influence on feline acne as they are a collector of dirt and germs which can easily pass into tiny nicks or scratches on your cat’s chin.
The acne will start as oily black plugs and can graduate to red, infected bumps. The treatments for this condition can vary, so it’s best to check with your veterinarian to find the best acne medication to use on your cat.
