Before disfigurement
The name black chin is only named from its characteristics, the real scientific name is folliculitis, if the cat's chin has folliculitis, you will see that there are many small black spots on the chin, generally only a small part of the black spots are good, but serious will lead to inflammation, hair removal, and odor. Folliculitis also appears in both the tail and the breast, the tail with folliculitis will look dry, most of the male cats in this area, the rate of bin after sterilization will be relatively reduced. We can understand it this way, just like people with blackheads and acne, whose pathology is similar, mainly caused by clogged pores. Folliculitis not only affects the beauty of the cat, but also the potential risk of deterioration! So how do we prevent and treat it, the following we need to understand the prevention and treatment (*'▽'*) ♪ ~
Isn't it hard to see
The causes of folliculitis are divided into three types - improper diet, external stimulation and abnormal hormone secretion, and the following are the matters that need attention in daily cat life.
How happy I am, how beautiful I am
Cat's Diet Tools - At this time, I would like to ask readers, how long has your cat bowl not been washed? Cats' dietary tools need to be cleaned and disinfected regularly, otherwise cat bowls containing high-protein cat food will become a super breeding base for bacteria.
Plastic - reduce the use of plastic cat bowls, because plastic is not suitable for food bowls, and will cause internal and skin stress, a stainless steel bowl is not expensive, so do not greedily choose plastic.
Cat Food - Cat food that is too oily can cause the cat's jaw to be covered with oily substances, which directly leads to clogged pores, which can cause folliculitis. This factor is the most common, and food exchange has become the focus of the shovelers.
Hormones - generally adult cats due to estrus period will lead to excess hormone secretion, similar to our puberty, this period of time due to pay more attention to the prevention of black chin, in addition to giving cats a quiet and happy environment can also reduce the body's abnormal hormone secretion caused by diseases.
Daily cleaning and hygiene - regular bathing of the cat with some antibacterial drugs can prevent the appearance of folliculitis, but remember to blow dry after bathing, otherwise the cat moss will be more than worth the loss!
The treatment of folliculitis is actually not complicated, and it is not as heart-wrenching as the cat moss! For the black chin we can use diluted antibacterial soap water for cleaning, if it is serious, it needs to be shaved, it can be treated with 2.5%-5% concentration of over-itching formyl or bactericidal ointments such as Baiduobang, pay attention not to be picky about drugs by cats, bring circles to prevent poisoning.
In fact, folliculitis is not a serious disease, and sometimes it does not affect health at all, but for the sake of beauty and just in case, we still do what we should do!
