Pet Forum / Miscellaneous / Animal Health / September 2007cat infected ?
Hi, I noticed that my cat (6yr old spayed female) had something in her fur, i thought it was just clumping, but on closer examination it was a translucent grey oval "pod" about 1/4" long and 1/8" wide; it was attached, there is a small sore there on her skin. I cut the pod off at the base where it connected; the cat didn't even notice. I thought it might be a spider egg sac or something so I squeezed it and black guck came out. Any ideas ? Thanks Pat > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Pat Sounds like a tick to me. >> Hi, >> [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > Sounds like a tick to me. hmm, okay, first time I've ever seen one... well half of it's gone now; I'll just keep an eye on it for a week or two, hopefully the rest will come out thanks >>> Hi, >>> [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > thanks You need to get the mouth portion out. > You need to get the mouth portion out. ........nope, no way to do that now. The body will toss it out eventually. buglady take out the dog before replying > > You need to get the mouth portion out. > > ........nope, no way to do that now.
