I have a beautiful 7 year old Peter Bald Russian Shynx who is going through a medical nightmare. We have been to the vet 5 times in 10 days and two separate vets are unclear how to treat her or what she has.

Symptoms :
•Large crusty sores all over he body and face
•Scabs become pustules and break casing bleeding and oozing
*Note: she is still eating regularly, drinking regularly and has been using her cat box.
There is no change in her food or her environment and her energy is still regular*

The vets have done scrapes and a biopsy and have ruled out;

Atopic dermatitis
Over active yeast caused wounds
Skin cancer
Autoimmune disorder

the bacteria found on slides is not rod shaped (which are more resistant to antibiotics) yet a typical blob shape.

she is currently on:
•Prednisolone 5G twice daily for pain
•Gabapentin (steroid) 50g twice daily
•Clinacin Solution 2pz twice daily
•lysine pimp twice daily. It’s been two weeks

I’m coming to the conclusion that she is going to need to be put down and end this suffering.

If ANYONE CAN HELP, if ANYONE HAS A SUGGESTION, I’m begging you to please reply!

Unfortunately, despite all our best efforts, this illness took Monet. My heart is heavy and filled with grief. Wherever next is, I’ll find my baby when it’s my time to join her. Thank you everyone for your kind words.

Oh God, I’m so sorry. I rarely *actually cry when reading posts but I am bawling like a baby. So devastating to see this post. I wish there was something I could do. All I can offer is prayers for you and Monet. I pray that your heart heals in time and I know you will see her again.


Love and Sphynx ~ It’s all you need

I'm so sorry for your loss. We all know that you did your best for Monet and I'm sure she knew it too. Did you get to the bottom of what caused it?
