Hair thinning on the limbs of cats: causes, diagnosis, and daily care strategies.
Fan question: Hello doctor, my Ragdoll cat has sparse hair on its limbs, and often bites its limbs, and now**bare**, it is pink, is this normal? What causes it?
Cats have sparse hair on their limbs and are accompanied by gnawing behavior, and the first thing to consider is whether there is a ** disease. Itching symptoms can be a sign of an allergic reaction, and the allergen may be caused by certain irritants in the food or environment.
In addition, ectoparasitic infections are also one of the common causes, especially the ** problems caused by mites, etc.
To determine if it is caused by allergies, you can try feeding your cat hypoallergenic prescription cat food, such as the Royal Cat Hypoallergenic Series, with the oral anti-allergic drug diphenhydramine (at a dose of 2-4 mg per kg of body weight).
At the same time, in vitro deworming should be done regularly to rule out the possibility of parasitic infection.
If the cat has no scabs or pimples and simple hair sparse, it may be due to malnutrition, especially deficiencies in vitamin B2 and unsaturated fatty acids such as Funzio.
Proper supplementation with these nutrients is essential for restoring healthy hair.
For cats who spit hairballs frequently, routine care includes regular grooming and the appropriate use of hair creams, such as Red Dog, Victor or Johnson & Johnson Darling products, to help reduce the accumulation of hairballs in the digestive tract.
If the cat has a black chin, you can shave the local hair and use Sujihua antibacterial cotton pads to clean it.
It is recommended to replace non-plastic food bowls and water basins to avoid food that is too greasy, and to supplement vitamin B2 to improve the condition.
For tear stain problems, in addition to regular eye cleansing, such as using eye Bekang products, you can also try oral Johnson & Johnson Darling Tear Stain Serum to observe the effect.
There are many reasons for the formation of tear stains, which need to be comprehensively analyzed and adjusted in combination with the cat's living environment, diet and potential allergic factors.
