Thread: Creamsicle is home from her biopsy *Update 8/7

    It starts out feeling like little pimples. If your feral allows you to pet him, when you remove your hand, chances are good that it'll be covered w/cat hair. And the pimples have heads on them and you can pick one off like you would pull sections out of a paint brush. They're very itchy and the cat is just miserable w/it. Dr. Lee said that it occurs mainly in horses from standing in dirty stalls. Cgirl probably gets it from the litterbox even though I clean them several times a day. But, as I mentioned, her immune system is compromised so she can get things that my other cats wouldn't. Left untreated they can lose all their fur and it's so itchy, it's like having poison ivy. As it is, Cgirl lost hair on the top of her head and her chest. I went on a cleaning binge but Dr. Lee assured me that it's nothing that I was or was not doing. Hope this helps.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Poor girl! How do they treat this? I have never heard of it. It amazes me the things these kitties can get, so much like humans.. Hope he can get her fixed up asap and without a whole lot of problems for you or her.

    Poor girl! Too bad that your vet hasn't done the biopsy when she was already under anaesthesia!! How awful that she has to deal with that now! And I can totally relate to your worries about the financials!

    Will keep good thoughts for her vet visit tomorrow.
    I hope you can clear things up with your vet.

    Nah, Dr. Lee is awesome. When I talk to him tomorrow, I'm sure he'll clear everything up for me. I'm just in a pissy faced mood. I made a special trip in to my other office for a client and she didn't show. I called her, no answer, left a voice mail and she didn't return my call. I'm just having one of those days and I've been letting it get the better of me. Oh well, my mantra is "Give me day and I'll be ok." As long as my Cgirl isn't itching too badly right now, I'll be fine after I talk to Dr. Lee. Sorry if I sounded whiney. I've just been going back and forth to the vet for months now w/one catastrophe after another while I'm slowly remodeling my house. Add running between two offices every day to the mix and you've got yourself a crazy blonde lady! Thanx for listening, friends, and I'll update as soon as I know more.
    Blessings,
    Mary
