Hello everyone,
Since I had my Sphynx last october, I've had issues with his skin the the neck/belly area.
He got very intolerant (liquidy diarrhea) to a lot of cat diets. I got him under the care of a vet and now the only thing that seem to work is a recipe made of Hillary's Blend nutrients (provided by my vet), horse meat, broccoli and 2 oils. That's all he eaten for several months.
The problem is
See photos attached)
Each time I bathe him (now every two weeks) his skin on his belly and neck area gets red, dry and he looks even dirtier the next day.
I've tried:
Hylyt shampoo (the "least" worst so far)
Nudie Naturals shampoo and conditionner on etsy (all organic and natural ingredients: organic fractionated coconut oil, castille soap, coconut soap, jojoba oil, olive oil, henp oil, vegetable glycerin, honey, vanilla extact and vitamin E oil.)
Douxo Pyo antifungal shampoo with Douxo Seb sebum balancing
I apply nothing else on his skin. The more I wait and do not put anything on him, the better he gets but comes a time that he gets so dirty (brown sebum on hands and sheets) that I feel like I have to clean him in some way...but I am so scared now.
It doesn't look like it's itching or painful.
My vet doesn't seem to know what it is. At first she said it was probably the diet but on the poop area his current diet is working well.
Have you guys ever seen this skin condition?
Any advice would be so helpful.
Thank you
