Thirteen year old Cat with Scabs

by Katie

My thirteen year old cat has pink scabs on her chest and stomach. She also has been lying around and not as energetic as she used to be. is she dying?


Answer by Kate
Hi well i wouldn't say that she was dying but it does sound like she has some skin issue which may be caused by either an allergy or parasite (there may be other causes) in either case you should take your cat to the vets as soon as possible. the combination of the scabs and her listless behaviour definitely needs to be checked out as soon as possible.

i hope she is ok and can be treated easily and is back to her old self soon.

best wishes kate
