Cat has red nose
My 7 year old female cat, Dirty Face has red showing thru her white fur
on her nose. Last Aug. when I took her for her annual shots I mentioned it to the vet. He said to put Neosporin on it. It didn't help. Then it was just red between the eyes now it's down her nose. What on earth could cause this? It doesn't seem to be painful to her, Thanks for any help, |

It doesn't seem to be painful to her, Thanks for any help, I don't know but I have often read that white cats who go outside are very susceptible to skin cancer. Does she go out? I would see another vet. Candace |

The cat I saw in Italy with skin cancer had it on his ears and nose. Hope this cat has something else. Rhonda |
