  • Puritis in Cats
    Clinical Approach to the Pruritic Cat Dr Robert Hilton BVSc(Hons) MACVSc CertVD MRCVS When dealing with cats with skin disease, it is important to understand that cats are not small dogs. The same cause may elicit different reaction patterns in different cats. Cats were worshipped as gods in ancient Egypt, and have not quite got over the fact. They are often difficult to pill, resent bathing, fail to eat elimination diets, hunt and steal food and love to remove topical medication by licking as soon as it is put on. The principal causes of feline pruritus are listed below: Common Allergies and ectoparasites − Flea bite allergy − Food allergy (and on rare occasions, non immune-mediated adverse food ) reactions − Atopic dermatitis − Mosquito hypersensitivity − Reactions to mites ( Otodectes, Cheyletiella, Notoedres, Sarcoptes ) Infections − Bacterial pyoderma (almost always secondary) − Dermatophytosis − Feline Herpes infection (especially nose and face) − Malassezia (especially Rex and Sphinx) Less Common Ectoparasites − Feline demodecosis (The contagious short-bodied D. gatoi is commonly recognised in Europe and North America) − Lice − Infestation with Trombicula spp Immune mediated disease − Pemphigus foliaceus − Drug reactions − Sebaceous adenitis − Lymphocytic mural folliculitis Neoplasia − Epitheliotropic lymphoma − Squamous cell carcinoma (common neoplasm, uncommonly pruritic) − Feline mast cell tumours Idiopathic − Psychological pruritus − Idiopathic facial dermatitis (dirty face disease) of Persian cats (Adapted from Noli and Scarampella (2004)) Same aetiology Same protocol Same treatment Manifestations of feline allergic disease. Any one or more of the following: Milliary dermatitis Eosinophilic plaque Eosinophilic granuloma Linear plaque/granuloma Over grooming syndrome Head and neck pruritus Urticaria pigmentosa Rodent ulcer Milliary dermatitis presents as multiple small crusted papules on any part of the body.

  • Feline Nutrition and Proper Food Storage
    FELINE NUTRITION AND PROPER FOOD STORAGE What is the best diet for my cat? Cats are obligate carnivores, and as such, require meat proteins as their main source of nutrition. The best, most nutritionally complete diet is a raw food diet or a canned food diet. However, not all budgets or lifestyles can accommodate this type of diet. Cat owners should feed their cats the highest quality food (wet or dry) that their budget will allow. What do cats need in their diets? Protein (from a recognizable meat source) Taurine (an amino acid naturally present in meat) vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and fatty acids water What should I look for when selecting a cat food? Pet food labels follow the same basic rules as human food labels, meaning that the list of ingredients descends from the largest to the smallest amount. A whole protein (muscle meat) should be the first ingredient (ideally, the first two or three ingredients would be proteins). Examples: chicken, turkey, lamb, beef, salmon, rabbit, duck, etc. The word “meal” after an identified protein is okay, but the word “by-product” is not. Byproducts can be comprised of heads, feet, viscera and other animal parts. Unidentified protein meal (“meat meal”) can contain rendered euthanized pets from shelters and vet clinics, 4D meat (dead, diseased, dying, disabled), road kill, and zoo animals. Avoid carbohydrate fillers such as corn (corn meal, ground whole corn, ground yellow corn, corn gluten meal, maize, etc.), cellulose (which is basically sawdust), wheat, and soy (especially if high on the ingredient list or if several of these are listed).

  • Feline Acne: a Retrospective Study of 74 Cases (1988–2003)

Miller, Jr. Department of Clinical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, Cornell University Abstract: Feline acne was diagnosed in 74 cats. No age, breed, or sex predilections were found. No triggering agents were identified. Most cats (58.1%) had the asymptomatic, noninflammatory comedonal stage of feline acne, and received no treatment. Some cats (41.9%) presented with feline acne and secondary bacterial folliculitis/furunculosis. Secondary bacterial infections responded well to antibacterial treatment. Follow-up information was available for 82.4% of all cats, and the comedonal stage of feline acne persisted in every case.

  • Maine Coon Tips
    Care and Training Most breeders recommend a high-quality dry food. Most cats can free feed without becoming overweight. Middle-aged cats (5-10) are most likely to have weight problems which can usually be controlled by switching to a low-calorie food. Many Maine Coons love water. Keep a good supply of clean, fresh water available at all times. Most Maine Coons can be trained to accept a leash. Maine Coons are creatures of habit and they train easily if they associate the activity with something they want (they train humans easily too!). Special Medical Problems Individuals within any breed are fairly closely related, and have many characteristics in common. This includes genetic strengths and weaknesses. Certain genetic health disorders may be more or less of a problem in a particular breed than in other breeds. For example, a breed may have a slightly higher incidence of gum disease than the cat population as a whole, but have a lower incidence of heart disease or liver disease. Genetic problems generally only affect a tiny minority of the breed as a whole, but since they can be eradicated by careful screening, most reputable breeders try to track such problems, both in their breeding stock and the kittens they produce. By working with a responsible breeder who will speak openly about health issues, you are encouraging sound breeding practices. In the Maine Coon, the most common inherited health problems are hip dysplasia, which can produce lameness in a severely affected cat, and cardiomyopathy, which can produce anything from a minor heart murmur to severe heart trouble.
