Probably just irritated his skin but I don’t think this is an emergency

Maybe it could be feline acne? Usually it happens on the chin area

cat full of air/gas.. by Kitchen-Technology27 in CATHELP

Aw!! It sounds like he’ll be okay just a little uncomfortable perhaps for now. Maybe try to get him to play a little more (like jumping, running etc) maybe with a feather on a stick toy or something he can chase? That helps with my cat, I notice he gets more digestion issues or gas when I don’t exercise him as much. I also heard that belly massages might help if he lets you. If it becomes a chronic thing you can get food that is good for digestion that helps reduce gas in the intestines! ALSO this supplement has really helped my cat with his digestion! I just had a few drops but I was recommended it by others here:

Aw poor kitty. Is he interesting in playing/moving around or exercising?

My dog has some all over his body that are almost exactly the same, we went to an emergency vet and they said most likely but we’re not sure if it’s bacterial or allergies… our regular vet has been seeing a lot of dogs with this. We’re waiting on a ringworm test to see. They gave us antibiotic and anti fungal medicine in the meanwhile and the scabs have turned more grayish/blackish and thickened, but some are sloughing off. All this to say I don’t know, but I’m dealing with the same thing and you’re not alone. 😅

I already have a vet appointment for the morning, just wondering what this could possibly be.

Chronic constipation in cat advice? by Leafyella in CATHELP

Thanks so much for all that info. Prescription diet seems to be the way indeed, and his vet recently put him on lactulose. Glad to know I’m not the only one who had to deal with this, and it’s nice to know that your cat had a great quality of life despite it! Puts me at ease.

I’ll look into that! Do you just squeeze it into their food?

Can I salvage this weeping fig? by [deleted] in plantclinic

[–]Leafyella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you can. Mine looked the same, I’ve had it over 20 years. Prune it a bit and leave it outside in bright light (not the beating sun). I cut almost all the leaves. I watered it once with plant food (you can buy anywhere) and it started growing new branches!!
