allergy

So Denzel is 9 months, he has the runs no matter what we feed him, we have tried everything, we finally found that he has hard poos when we feed him 100% beef KatKin. One day we let him in the garden, the next day he has the runs and was sick. We tried to feed him his Kat Kin again and he...

Hello! I’m a mom of my first kitten (3 months old)! His name is Isaac, and he is my cutie angel. Few days ago I’ve noticed some strange spots on him :( Unfortunately in my city there is no vets who specialise on sphynx cats, so I wanna ask you, can it be an allergy? He was ill and vet gave him...

Bean is still under a year and he recently got a little circular scabby “rash” looking spot… I washed all his bedding and it went away or so we thought From time to time he’ll get the same looking thing on his paw, leg, forearm but its never spread or seemed to bother him- mostly upset me bc...

Hi all! New here. My sphynx is super itchy and I’m at a bit of a loss. We’ve been in and out of the vets for 6 months now without any answers. She’s been really itchy and we can’t find the answer. Currently waiting for an allergy test to come back. We’ve not changed anything environmental...

So I got Luna a little while ago, she fought off a URI like a champ and she's doing great as far as eating (she has a very healthy appetite), drinking, playing, and using the litterbox. But I do notice that she occasionally has red eyelids. No discharge or issues with her eyeballs. So I was...

Hello! My husband and I are looking to get a Sphynx cat. We currently have a yorkie mix pup who loves cats and we all have wanted one for a long time. Sphynx has been my dream cat since I was a young kid! One issue is that my husband’s brother and father are pretty allergic to cats in general...

Hi all! I have been on quite the tumultuous feeding journey since I got my first Sphynx July of 2020 (I have two half siblings that are 1 and 1.5 years old). My older sphynx has had a series of allergy and eye issues since he was a small kitten. He developed lip ulcers at one point...

Hey all! I’ve followed the site for a long time but this is my first post! My girl Buffy developed a rash which we assumed was some kind of allergy a few weeks ago. I of course took her to the vets who gave her an injection of antibiotics and told us to pop back again in two weeks. The...

So after about a year of battling allergies; including giving allergy injections and medicated baths, we are again battling another skin infection mainly yeast :rolleyes: It has been a huge struggle. I just want her to have her beautiful skin back!!! I broke down and started feeding Agnes a...

Hi Everyone! My bambino kitten Kovu has been having issues with allergies. He would get really bad rashes and pimples that would eventually bleed, scab, and scar. We have the allergy under control now, thankfully. However, he has been left with pretty bad scarring. His cheeks that were once...

I came back from the vet today and was let down by the experience. Last week I took Violet in and they did blood work that showed she either had a parasite or allergies. Stool sample showed no parasite, so my vet said she was allergic to something probably in her diet and maybe that was causing...

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone has seen anything like this on their Sphynx before. It started 3 days ago as just a few red hives that seemed to rapidly spread and is still spreading. However the hives aren’t very raised anymore and it mostly feels very dry and flakey. Henry doesn’t seem...

Hello. New to site. My kitten developed red spots that looked like ringworm. Vet wasn't sure if that or staph infection. He has been treated with clavamox orally for 10 days & bathing with blue Dawn dish soap then applying an antifungal cream for almost 3 weeks. The spots have turned brown but...

Hi! I’m a little lost and need some help. When my cat was little, I used to bathe her every few days with unscented hypoallergenic pet shampoo and then rub her down in coconut oil and all of that. She’s had rashes in her armpits and on her chest since as long as I can remember. I went to the vet...

hey guys! I just adopted my second little girl who seems to be giving me more problems than I could’ve imagined. My first sphynx (whom I got 2 years ago) has had no issues in health. I adopted Jasmine 4 weeks ago (she just turned 1) and seems to have a rash that nobody can figure out. She...

Hi! Just curious if anyone else has seen this... Any of you that have a baby with allergies saw them eat uncontrollably before you controlled the allergy?? Backstory: Astrid has always eaten everything in sight, and started to develop a rash... Now the vet suggested crap food and put her off of...

Okay so this is going to be kind of a long one. I got my baby, Crypto, about a year ago from a dude who had about 2-3 sphynx cats in order to breed them. I was told he was probably about 3 years old when I got him. About a week or two after I got him home, I noticed he was missing one of his...

My mom is allergic to cats, but I finally convinced her that we can get a Sphynx. If we visit a cat shelter with sphynxes, I'm worried she'd react way too hard since there are way more than just one cat there, and say there's no way we can have one. If I got a sphynx home, I would bathe it each...

My sphynx is almost a year old and have been trying to figure out whats going on for a year now! He scratches his neck and head and constantly has sores that he will scratch till they bleed. The vet checked him for ear mites or ear infections and came back negative. Ive tried multiple types of...

Hello. So Buster has always had very good skin and never experienced any allergies. Earlier this month, we brought Buster to the vet because he had bad breath. Two days later, I noticed this rash on his body: I was concerned it may have been because I was using the heated blanket that night...

Hello friends! I've been on this site A LOT, searching for an answer or advice for anything related to my two sphynx babies. This is my first post though, so hello! My sphynx male Benedict has had a dark and itchy chest for some time now. I do notice that there are times it looks more...

Hi all! I just adopted a little fur(less) baby, just got her home yesterday! We named her Ripley, as she is our new little alien and is quite the face hugger. Ripley seems to have a rash on her butt, tummy, "forearms" and paws. All of the places that touch her new litter. I've asked the...

Hi! I'm new to this forum but have had my little sphynx for over a year now. He's a bit skinny so we're looking at maybe changing his food, however we've always been told by both the breeder and some places on the internet that sphynx were severely allergic to fish and can't have fish oil...
