    Has she been itching them or licking them?

    I noticed her licking it a lot today but I hadn't noticed her doing it before.

    I was thinking yeast as well; my Willy is highly prone to this sort of thing. For him, I have to be sure to use grain free food and treats -- yeast feeds on carbohydrates, so the grains are out.

    The large area above your finger (first photo) 'could' be a hot spot developing. If it is, you can apply Gold Bond powder up to 3 times a day to help it heal.

    Let us know what the vet says!

    The vet said it's an infection. I got some meds for her (expensive! $130 vet trip today) anyway this should clear it up!!

    Just curious

    Did the vet mention what type of infection and what may have caused it? What meds did you get for it? Just curious, in case the same thing happens to my Prue Prue.

    Glad your Sowa will be fine and surely hope the problem clears up soon!

    Vets are expensive, I know, having three cats and one dog.

    We're not sure what caused it. But I'm pretty sure the medication is called clavaseptin. I don't have it right in front of me but I'll check after.
