Dermatology

Pets can develop skin problems too. At our clinic, we offer dermatology services to treat various skin conditions. If you notice anything unusual on your pet's skin or see them licking or scratching themselves excessively, we recommend that you make an appointment as soon as possible.

What are signs of skin problems in cats?

Although they vary depending on the pet, there are many common symptoms of skin problems that often need to be checked out by a vet. Here are a few:

• Loss of fur in certain spots
• Increased scratching
• Excessive licking
• Unusual body odour
• Persistent dandruff
• Redness or inflammation

What usually causes skin problems in pets?

There are many factors that can lead to skin problems. Your pet may have an allergic reaction to something in their environment or to a specific food. It can also be caused by parasites. In some cases, it may be a bacterium or a fungus. Whatever the cause, if you're noticing any physical changes or different habits in your furry friend's body and habits, it's best to make an appointment at the clinic so we can diagnose and treat the problem.
