My cat has a literal hole in her skin, not her fur. She is at a vets now. He says it was caused by a car or something.  In the near past he gave her injections of prenesone for auto immune dx. I think it was the medicne that caused a skin breakdown. Any suggestions? Recommendations for the best vetrinarian in town.??

I am so desperate. HELP.

Which town?

Best vet we've found is Hang Dong Animal Hospital.....Open 24/7 with clean and modern facilities....No appointments needed.....We have multiple cats & have used many vets....

We have one cat that also had a hole in the skin 1baht sized....Dr said it was a cat bite that our cat licked & chewed at to try to heal....

The Dr cut away the discolored skin at the perimeter then cleaned, put medicine in, then gauze & surgical tape....We change the dressing daily as it has to heal from the inside out - which could take up to a month....Of course he's wearing the cone of shame to keep him from biting/licking....+ Meds....

We had a flu come through our bunch that's 80% fatal....They pulled all of ours through....We have 11....None are outside roaming cats....

 

I wouldn't let our cats roam.... There's some ugly diseases out there....A flu passed through a few months back....When riding my bike I'll count cats & I counted up to 17....After the flu I've never seen 5....

It’s Posted in the Chiang Mai forum. 

This is a desease which can be treated in a good hospital for sure. I ve seen many with such a skin issue innBkk. Some say it is transmitted from pigeons. Its just money. Invest in your cat and dont wait.

Chiang Mai University Small Animal Hospital.  Couldn't post the map but the map can be found at the link:  Chiang Mai University Animal Hospital (CMUAH)

"Auto immune" [sic] medication didn't provide immunity from car injuries?   Waste of money!

If you are anywhere near Mae Rim Road, Ohayo Pet Hospital is run by Dr. Doom whom I met at CMU Small Animal Hospital 10+ years ago. He is excellent with cats and took care of mine for 10+ years.
