    Back home!! Well, I am glad I tried this new vet out! He examined both cats really thoroughly!

    Maya: looks like she is allergic to fleas! That spot looks like a reaction to maybe just 1 flea! So she got a shot to give that skin a chance to heal without being itchy. From now on I have to give her Frontline every month!

    Inka : The vet thinks she was bitten by 2 ticks. As she scratched of the crusts, she has 2 open wounds on her forehead. She has to take anti-biotics during 10 days!

    Oh my, I am so glad I followed my intuition that they needed help!!

    I'm sorry to hear that both girls have skin issues. I'm so glad that you took them to the vet. I'm sure that they'll be fine in no time.

    Well I'm glad to hear that it is something which is easily treated. Poor girls! Antibiotics for 10 days is quite a lot! Is Inka easily to pill?

    Well, it is good that the problems are at least minor.

    Good luck giving those pills.
