I would try another vet if I were you.
Oh my. That looks so painful. Please find another vet ASAP.
In some cities there are vet hospitals that have outpatient offices for specialties and one is dermatology.
Please see if you can find one like that. Many will work with you on costs/financing.
Please post back with an update. Prayers for healing.
He has a dermatologist appt on the 19th. Fingers crossed.
Prayers will continue!! Post back what you learn!
Well, went to the specialist. Feels it is a food allergy and has an immune disorder that caused it to get infected and spread.
Thanks for your update!! So happy the kitty is mending! Healing prayers continue!!!
You need a veterinary clinic in a university.
Try to find a university that has a veterinary school within driving distance as this may be your only hope.
Your baby needs specialty care and most likely no regular vet is going to be able to heal this as something like this is very unusual.
Universities specialize in cases like this as it may the only time their students will have access to this problem.
If for some reason you cannot visit a university veterinary school I would suggest you post a notice about your cat's condition (with pictures) on Craigslist, Nextdoor.com, USA4Sale, Facebook Groups with a big HELP at the top and explain your story and ask for help from anyone who may have an answer.
I have seen this done and they did have a vet call and offered his services so you just never know and I believe you and this baby have been through enough hurt and pain for a lifetime.
These pictures are too painful to look at.
Please post back and let us know how he is doing.
If it happens that you have to pay for any more vet bills I would suggest you post your story on GoFundMe:
Sorry - I meant to add that you can place - specialty care vets - on Google and see if there are any of these vets near you (add your zip code but you may have to go further) as your cat will need this type of service.
This is not a normal condition and your cat will need very special care that your vet is not able to give you. I would try to find a vet that specializes in these types of condition. I feel so sorry for your poor cat and I hope that a new vet will be able to clear this up for you so the poor cat no longer has to suffer.
Your beautiful cat looks like he has chin acne. It is a common condition. If you have spent $1000 you already know that. Feline acne can have several causes which makes it harder to diagnose and treat.
He is getting better eventhoughit doesnt look like it. His hair needs to grow back more.
