Cat with sore on head
He (my 6yo MaineCoon neutered male cat) has been spending more time in the house the last month. The question: He developed a sore spot on the top of his head and the hair has been coming out in a circumference of about 3/4 of an inch around the sore spot. I have been treating it with bag balm (cow sauve) and a antibotic first aid spray for cats which contains
natural oat extract. Active ingredient is benzalkonium chloride. It is healing and scabbing up, but He keeps scratching at it and opening it up. Should I put something on, that would prevent him from doing that? I.E. bandaid. We just had him microchipped, and he had an exam and was prounounced healthy. Two days later this started. Prior to this he had a sore on his side that seemed to be similar, but no hair loss, but it finally disappeared with him chewing at it. Could this be something serious.
