How can I get prescription flea medicine for my girl?
First time cat owner here. My baby was a stray and I have found flea dirt on her. This could be a dumb question, but do I take her to the vet immediately, or would she be contagious to the other pets there? I have read to NOT get flea medicine from stores, and to only get prescription. Is there a way to get the prescription. meds and give her a bath, or would you recommend going to the vet immediately? I love her very much and want to give her the best care that I can!
What kind of cat do I have?
First, I’ve never seen a cat this type of sandy beige color. Plus she has this pattern that looks like wood grain? like a big circle surrounded by other half circles. I looked it up and it said Sokoke cats have the same pattern but there’s allegedly less than 100 in the world, and i’m in America not near where Sokokes originate. Is she just a special orange tabby?
Went to my Mom's house and found her cat in this state
(Tagged NSFW simply due to the image of her injury, it looks REALLY bad).
I went over to my Mom's house to pick up something she had for me and when I go in to play with her cats, I see one of them and. Immediately I noticed the sore/spot/wound/etc. I'm immediately like "HEY no what the fuck happened to her" and she says it must've happened in the last few days but. Jesus fucking Christ.
We already had the "okay you need to get this cat a vet. NOW" talk and she's chatting with vet. Emergency care, but does anyone have any idea what the fuck this is? And if there's anything we can do for her before she's seen?
The spot is like one of her lower nipples, I think? Around that area. She's always had skin problems but this is totally terrible.
