the cat doesn't seem to be bothered by it, it just looks ugly. It isn't getting any worse. We just want it gone and my daughter is really close to trying to pop it. Does anyone know what this could be? I know it is not RING WORM....My cat looks like he has a large pimple the size of a blackhead with a black raised center. What is this?
Cat's and Dogs can get ring worms, i just figured that out, and the way your discribing it sounds like my dogs ringworm, if that is so, catch it while its there, dont let it get any bigger, we put anti-fungal cream on my dogs and it's healing, dont expect it to heal quickly it took my dofg about 1 1/2 to heal,
good luckMy cat looks like he has a large pimple the size of a blackhead with a black raised center. What is this?
You don't say WHERE it is, but if it's on his chin, it's caused from the bacteria that gets on the rim of a PLASTIC water or food dish. Every time the cat eats or drinks, more bacteria gets on his chin, and causes ';pimples';.
CLEAN the area really well, and put some antibacterial ointment on it. AND........get rid of ALL plastic feeding / watering dishes. Use glass or metal instead. Neither of these will ';harbor'; bacteria like plastic. Of course, you SHOULD be washing those dishes every day when you refill them, anyway.......
If it's not on his chin........it may be something else entirely, and need to see a vet to ascertain what it is and how to deal with it.
Hope this helps.........Good luck.
animals can get zits/pimples so thats wat it probably is
sometimes cat's oil glands can get clogged and it looks like a pimple and it pretty much is like one and it is filled with puss. but you can call the local vet and describe it over the phone and they will give you more information.
Go to a Vet and have them make a diagnosis. Without seeing the problem, or knowing all the facts , I can't even make an educated guess. And stop picking at it, or you will cause a secondary infection.
