She has these grey/black lumps on her skin, paw/chin/bum. She's had one before over her eye and it was just gone after two three days but there are lots now. Are they bugs under the skin or bites? Do we need to do something or just let it be like the first time?|||Even a vet wouldn't attempt a diagnosis like this, we can't see your pets and can't do any tests. Take your pet to the vet and if you're lucky it'll be something straightforward like ticks.
Even if someone else's pet has a similar sounding problem it may not be identical. Don't mess about with advice from 10 different people and 10 different home remedies, just go to the vet.
Skin mites burrow into the skin and yes, you may be able to see them. They need veterinary treatment.|||go see a vet it could be bad for your cats health|||Take to vet ask a vet to be sure|||ah i just read your answers as i was hoping someone might tell you what they were and if any the treatment for it as my dog as the same problem they dont seem to bother him though and as you said there under the skin so they cant be mites as they are visauble from the outside of the skin yes he,s had these before so if you get any positive answers let me know please :-) cheers|||Your cat might have a skin problem do bring her to a vet to check it out or u might wanna find ur answer from http://www.vetinfo.com/cacne.html
if u cant get any answers at all.|||sounds like she has either an allergy, fleas can cause an allegy in some cats, take her to the vets anyway as the only action really is to get treatment sooner better than later. It the sores are open try a VERY weak solution of warm salty water gently bathed over affected areas.|||Could be a flea or tick bites but check at the vet for your cat health|||It sounds like your cat might have mites, or tics and a really bad case of them at that you should take her to the vet for treatment.|||I've always had cats, and one of my favourites no longer with me, was allergic to fleas. The bites would appear like you have described, hard and scabby, and I would know to treat all of the cats then. Buy a flea collar and see if the problem disappears in a week to 10 days. If your cat appears otherwise healthy and is eating properly, dont panic, but if the problem doesnt go away, its time to write a cheque for the vet. good luck|||There are many things which could cause this; flea allergy, mites under the skin, ticks, insect bites, food allergies; whatever it is, DONT just "wait for it to go away" How would you like it if some maggots were burrowing under your skin and the doc said "wait for it to go away"? Whatever is is, your cat is in pain and discomfort- just because it cant say "Ouch, it hurts" doesnt meean he is fine!! Get him to a vet, fast. Home remedies do not work, and all the while you are trying them, your cat is in pain and the condition is getting worse. SICK CATS NEED VETS%26gt;|||Sounds like ticks to me. They burrow their head under the skin and feed on the blood getting larger and larger. When they have had enough they just drop off. Don't try to pull them off or the head gets left behind and gets infected. Cats pick them up in the garden and there isn't a lot you can do to stop them apart from using something like Frontline. If in doubt always ask your vet.|||could be little flea bites and have been itching badly by thier claws when they scratch
