Answer 1

Please have your cat with the skin problem checked for diabetes. This was one of the first presentations for my cat who went misdiagnosed for 2 years.

You have to take it to the vet and check the sugar level in it's urine.

Good luck.

Have you discussed these issues with a trained and certified veterinarian? If you haven't that's the first thing you should do! There are many many things that can cause those problems. Such as the hair issue could indicate a skin disease or it could be a symptom for thyroid problems among many other things. One big thing I want to note though, never ever *ever* use a product made for another animal on a cat. If it doesn't say "cat" on the bottle than don't use it. The only reason I mention this is a lot of the time dog meds and skin conditioners and such can be cheaper so people will buy them for their cats. Unfortunately cats are allergic to many items that dogs aren't allergic to and can be made very sick and even die just by coming into contact with something as simple as dog shampoo.

Making dietary changes is your first line of defense in treating hypothyroidism. Learn here https://tr.im/JWqnt

Many people with hypothyroidism experience crippling fatigue and brain fog, which prompts reaching for non-nutritional forms of energy like sugar and caffeine. I’ve dubbed these rascals the terrible twosome, as they can burn out your thyroid (and destabilize blood sugar).

1. Just say no to the dietary bungee cord. Greatly reduce or eliminate caffeine and sugar, including refined carbohydrates like flour, which the body treats like sugar. Make grain-based carbohydrates lesser of a focus, eating non-starchy vegetables to your heart’s content.

2. Up the protein. Protein transports thyroid hormone to all your tissues and enjoying it at each meal can help normalize thyroid function. Proteins include nuts and nut butters; quinoa; hormone- and antibiotic-free animal products (organic, grass-fed meats, eggs, and sustainably-farmed fish); and legumes.

Hi, I would take them to a holistic vet if you can afford that. If not, I would switch them both to a raw diet, expecially an organic one if possible.

Best of luck with your babies!
