A kittens health?


kittens health
Ashley asked:


Alright so my mom wanted a kitten and she went out to some home that were giving free kittens away. She got one and it looked perfectly healthy. Then about 2 days after that it started to develope something around its neck. The hair is completely gone from the front of his neck and its not healing. My mom doesnt have the money to take it to the vet so she got some stuff from a store, its the kind of stuff you put over a cut to heal it, and some bandages. Were not sure exactly what it is. I thought it had something to do with a skin condition. Then I realized that the kitten really couldnt meow. When it would open its mouth to meow there was only a little sound. So I thought that maybe it was internal or something. So I just need to know exactly what the problem is. If you know what the problem is or have any suggestions please help. Thanks =]

    Is it an wound? Scaley Patch? Rash?

    Have you googled “mange”?

    How is the kitty’s appetite?

    More info before a guestimate can be made…

    You kitten is a responsibility. It is suffering, and YOU are the only person it has.

    The stuff from the store could be toxic for cats.

    Please take this kitten to the vet.

    Well you need to save money for the vet, because you can’t leave it like this. It’s most likely a skin issue that can only be treated by formula or meds. Either way you shouldn’t have gotten a cat if you aren’t ready to take care of it. You would still have to take it to the vet to get shots etc… So you should have been ready to visit the vet, you can’t just leave it like this..

    Poor thing

    Please take it to the vet. You need to
