Our cat is 4 months old- we bought him in December. From recent phone calls with my parents, I know that he's been suffering from skin infections and constantly scratching his wounds.
I don't know what type of infection it is - my parents are not medically-minded. The doctor gave them some sort of medicine, but the problem is... our cat just keeps scratching and scratching until the infection becomes a wound! And as soon as the wound gets better, he starts scratching and scratching again >_<
Now, my parents are really stressed. They really don't know WHAT to do. Mum's tied a scarf around our cat's head/neck, but he still continues scratching and the wound doesn't seem to be getting any better.
My parents don't dare take him to get a bath because they are afraid of the consequences with wounds and such. And it seems to be a vicious cycle because our cat keeps getting more and more "itchy spots" on his body and the scratching gets worse and worse >_
