I recently took in a stray that was hanging around my house... she was obviously previously a house-cat as she tried to come inside everytime I opened the door, uses a litter box, and is quite friendly and cuddly for a "stray." I thought she was pregnant because her nipples were quite swollen but they disappeared over the few weeks before I actually took her inside. Once I brought her in I bathed her, and I noticed some little black dots around her nipples... her nipples are quite protruded, but she is not producing milk/nor are her milk glands swollen. The nipples look quite dry and the black dots are on every nipple, but more so on the lower ones towards her hind legs.
I have another cat who is up-to-date with her shots and I just found the same black dots on her nipples, so now I'm quite worried. Is this just "feline acne" that I have read about, or the way cats' nipples are, or something else? What can I do to treat it?
