patch of fur missing
"naked on the phone" wrote in message ups.com... meeee wrote: Yep. pawpaw. And you may have solved the problem!!This little guy likes to spend time under my fridge, it's an older style one, but must be warm, and as it's a very 'square' looking patch, he might be putting his bum up against a pipe or something. Thanks for that!! I'm off to block off the fridge! dang, i must have hit the send button 3 times or something, I didn't mean to do that lol and there i was getting all excited thinking people had replied to me! i figure pawpaw is some sort of disenfectant, we don't have "pawpaw" here in the US .. we might! just never heard of it. Sorry, being obscure again. Pawpaw cream is made of smooshed up pawpaw in some kind of cream-type-stuff (how descriptive, i know) and works to pull splinters, draw boils, heal, and prevent infection. we use bisquick and coke-cola to cure most things and windex Lol seen 'The Castle'?? sorry, aussie film.... yeah, the dirt is what makes me think it had to do with a heat source if it was a fungus or something, he'd prolly be licking it and it wouldn't be dirty at least hope that's all it was, guess we'll find out Yeah, that's why it sounds plausible. The 'stud tail' hypothesis sounds similar too, so I'll treat for both and see how we go. Thanks, advice much appreciated! |

Thankyou!! That looks like it...very similar and it's in exactly the right spot...the patch is very defined, and in that specific area. If so, then the ti-tree in a bath would help, as ti tree is used in human acne treatment. He is also a variant (long/short hair cross). Thanks heaps, now I have two things to try!! STOP! Do NOT do this! Tea tree oil is TOXIC to cats! Read this: http://www.tea-tree-oil-use.com/pets.htm |

"meeee" wrote Thanks for informing me, I wasn't aware of that. Please, before you apply/feed anything to your cat, check it out first online or at your vet. They are so close to use, it is easy to forget we are talking about a different species here. I believe I heard that aspirin is harmful for cats, too. |

Lucky I put it off til the weekend. Normally I check, but as I use a few drops of ti tree in warm water as an antiseptic for dogs (I have a lovely, but very accident prone staffy) I just didn't think...and I'm so glad someone pulled me up! |
