Hellou,
I have this ongoing battle with kittens skin. She first didn't have any lumps or bumps but they seem to come more and more often. I was thinking these marks come from rough play with other kitten so I started to clip their nails more often while these appear on the shoulders, neck and head. It doesn't help anymore. They are itchy and really lumpy and there is rashes on left side of the head and chest. What I have collected from this website that it might be allergy? Or could this be something worse? I was anyway thinking to get vet appointment so maybe there I could get some help for the itchiness. Sphynx's are not so common here what I understood so I would like to know bit beforehand what this could be and what could I do to prevent this. She is my first sphinx so I'm bit lost how to make her life best as it can be.
General info about the kitten's situation:

General info about the kitten's situation:
- I bathe her about once a month with Trixies neutral (cat and dog) shampoo. (I don't oil or moisturize or do anything else for her skin)
- She is 10 months old female
- Other kitten is 8 months old bengal
- She is not anymore so exited of the wet and raw food as before
- She gets 2 kinds of nibbles everyday as side dish
- She still eats well but usually only nibbles.
- Drinks water like before.
