Maureen Camarsh Hon Secretary – Federal Cat Club of Australasia 30 Feline Acne & Stud Tail Feline acne is probably more common than is generally appreciated, as most cases are mild and pass unnoticed. More severe cases, however, may respond slowly to treatment and seriously detract from the appearance of the cat. Two main types of gland are found in the dermal layer of the skin of the cat - the sweat glands and the sebaceous glands. Most of the sebaceous glands are associated with hair follicles and produce an oily secretion, sebum, which waterproofs the hairs and maintains the suppleness of the skin. In addition, a collection of much larger sebaceous glands are found on the chin, the lips, the dorsal (top) surface of the base of the tail and also the eyelids, prepuce and scrotum. The collection of glands under the skin in the chin area is sometimes referred to as the submental organ and the glands around the base of the tail are known as the supracaudal organ. The oily secretion of these larger sebaceous glands appears to have a role in territorial marking and cats will repeatedly rub their chin, lips, temporal area and base of tail over certain objects. In time the secretions build up on favourite marking objects and may be seen as black, greasy patches. Cat owners may have noticed that they are 'marked' by their pets on returning home. Cats will also often mark certain objects at feeding time. Overactivity of the submental organs is a relatively common finding and is seen as excessive greasiness of the overlying fur and skin. This is particularly noticeable on the chin of white or pale coloured cats and appears as a yellow, greasy discolouration. There may also be flecks of black, greasy material on the chin which may be mistaken for flea dirt; this is sometimes called 'cruddy chin'. Overactivity of the glands at the base of the tail is often known as 'stud tail'. It has been suggested that activity of the supracaudal organ around the base of the tail depends on testosterone (the male hormone). Stud tail is most common in entire males, but, despite its name, is also seen in neuters and females. This overactivity of the sebaceous glands predisposes to feline acne which is seen in varying degrees of severity. The condition remains poorly understood in terms of an underlying cause and is assumed to represent a form of keratinisation disorder (keratin is a protein which is the main component of hair and nails) where the cat's hair follicles produce excessive keratinous/ sebaceous material. It may occur at any age and in any breed or sex. In mild cases, the associated hair follicles become plugged with the black sebaceous material forming comedones (commonly referred to as a blackhead). Secondary bacterial infection may result, leading to folliculitis (inflammation of the hair follicles) and formation of papules and pustules from which beads of pus may be expressed. In severe cases of inflammation of multiple follicles, pyoderma (an 31 eruption characterised by pus in the skin) develops, with a mass of discharging tracts or sinuses. Cats with mild feline acne or stud tail show no associated clinical signs but in severe cases there may be inflammation and irritation of the overlying skin. The point of the chin may become grossly swollen and there may be an enlargement of the draining lymph nodes of the head and neck. Treatment Treatment of cases of feline acne and stud tail involves removal of excess sebum and hence prevention of comedone formation and secondary infection. An antibacterial surgical scrub, such as chlorhexidine, can initially be used for this purpose two or three times daily. In mild cases no further treatment is necessary, but in cases showing extensive secondary infection, antibiotic therapy, preferably selected on the basis of bacterial culture and sensitivity tests, will be required. Topical preparations are of very limited value for severe cases because they are soon licked or cleaned off by the patient, and antibiotics should be given orally for four to six weeks. Severe cases may also be treated with steroids to reduce the inflammation. Keeping the acne at bay may require clipping and daily application of chlorhexidine. Other treatments which have been tried include mupirocin (Bactroban; Beecham - a human drug not licensed for use in cats). Topical retinoids may be considered for long term control of a mild case. Supplementation with veterinary formulated essential fatty acids (evening primrose oil/fish oil) orally on a daily basis has been reported to help some cases, eg, Viacutan (Boehringer), Efavet (Efamol). Most cases respond satisfactorily but some cases with serious secondary infection may require prolonged treatment. There may be recurrence and in some cases the only method of controlling the excessive sebum secretion is to continue daily cleansing indefinitely. Occasionally acne is associated with fungal infections including dematophytosis (ringworm) and, rarely, with demodectic mange. Prevention In some cats with a tendency to chin acne, the use of ceramic or metal feeding dishes, instead of plastic ones, may help to prevent the problem from recurring or deteriorating. Chin acne is sometimes more severe in cats which are messy feeders, so scrupulous attention to hygiene after meals, or a change to food which can be eaten more neatly, may help to reduce the problem. From the Feline Advisory Bureau. Updated November 2008 Cats’ Kitchen Below are a few recipes your human can make for you. Helping them is important - how else can you be in the way, being annoying and get extras whilst the treats are made? Cheese Balls Mackerel Munchies Ingredients: 1 tspn instant porridge oats 1 egg yolk, whisked 15g pumpkin, peeled, cooked and finely diced 80g fresh beef mince 1/2 tspn freshly chopped flat leafed parsley 20g mozzarella cheese 1 tspn vegetable oil Method: 1. Soak the oats in the whisked egg yolk for 10 minutes 2. Add the pumpkin, mince and parsley to the egg and oat mix and knead. Shape the mixture into six balls 3. Slice the mozzarella into three pieces. Sandwich each slice between two meatballs and flatten down slightly 4. Heat the oil in a frypan and fry the meatballs on a medium heat for 3 minutes on each side 5. Remove and cool. Cut each portion into bite size pieces before serving. Store any unused portions in the fridge (should last 2-3 days in the fridge) Ingredients: 1/2 cup canned mackerel (drained) 1 tsp vegetable oil 1/2 tsp brewers yeast (optional) 1 cup whole grain breadcrumbs 1 beaten egg Method: 1. Preheat oven to 175C. Using a large bowl, mash drained mackerel into pieces using a fork. 2. Combine with vegetable oil, breadcrumbs, egg and brewers yeast if desired. Mix them well. 3. Drop mixture by 1/4 teaspoon into a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 8 mins. 4. Take out and let it cool and then refrigerate. Tip: Store homemade cat treats in a tightly air-sealed container so they will not dry out quickly and be hard for your cats to chew. Tuna Ball Treats What cat doesn't enjoy a little tuna now and then? This quick recipe will give your pet plenty of tasty tuna treats to enjoy for several weeks if stored in an air-tight container in a cool place. Ingredients: 1/2 cup of whole-wheat flour 1/2 cup of powdered milk 1/2 cup of tuna packed in oil 1 large beaten egg 1/4 cup of water Method: 1. Grease a cookie sheet with margarine or use one lined with a silicone sheet. 2. In a bowl, mix the flour and powdered milk together. In a separate bowl, combine the tuna and egg together, mashing the tuna until it is no longer chunky. 3. Add the tuna mixture to the dry ingredients, and add the water a little at a time until a slightly sticky dough ball is formed. 4. Using two spoons or a small cookie scoop, create balls and place them about one-inch apart on a nonstick cookie sheet. 5. Cook in the oven at 175C for approximately 25 minutes. Cool completely before serving to your pet. Alternative recipe: Substitute pureed, cooked chicken combined with one tablespoon of cod liver oil for the tuna packed in oil. Chewy Cat Treats for Cats Ingredients: 1 large egg 1 4-oz jar chicken and brown rice baby 1/4 cup parsley, coarsely chopped 2 teaspoons olive oil 2 tablespoons water 1 cup brown rice flour 1/2 cup cooked white (or brown) rice Method: 1. Place a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat oven to 160C 2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. 3. In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, baby food, parsley, olive oil, and water. Add brown rice flour and cooked rice. Stir to incorporate. The mixture will be thick but spreadable. 4. Spread mixture onto prepared baking sheet creating a rectangle that is about 1cm thick. 5. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven. Let rest until cool enough to handle, then slice soft dough into bitesized pieces. 6. Return pieces to the oven to bake for another 8 minutes. 7. Remove from the oven. Allow to cool completely. 8. Store in an airtight container in the fridge. Lucky Chicken Dinner Ingredients: 1 can cooked chicken chunks (or equivalent fresh cooked chicken) 1/2 cup cooked rice 1/2 cup frozen broccoli, cooked/steamed 1/4 cup steamed carrots, chopped chicken broth Method: 1. Put all the ingredients into a food processor except the broth. 2. Process ingredients on high, then slowly pour in the broth until the stuff takes-on a pasty consistency. Will keep in the 32 fridge for up to a week.

It is the advertiser’s responsibility to ensure advertisements submitted for publication comply with the Act and that the provisions of the Act are strictly complied with. In cases of doubt, advertisers are asked to seek legal advice before submitting advertising material. The Editorial Committee reserves the right to withhold publication of any material whatsoever. Views and opinions expressed in this journal are those of the correspondents and contributors concerned and are not necessarily those of the Editorial Committee, printers or publishers. Names and addresses of correspondents may be withdrawn from publication on request but must be supplied to the Editor. Disputes From time to time, members refer matters to the NSW Cat Fanciers Association Inc (NSW CFA) when it is not appropriate. For example, disputes between members in relation to the sale of cats are usually private matters to be determined by the contractual arrangements between members. Disputes on such matters should be resolved by the courts, not by NSWCFA. Members are requested to refrain from referring matters to NSW CFA which are a private or domestic matter or which should be properly resolved by the Courts. Members should be aware that the Consumer Claims Tribunal is available to resolve many disputes in the relation to the supply of goods to a consumer and NSWCFA recommends that matters that fall within the jurisdiction of that Tribunal and which cannot be resolved personally should be referred to that Tribunal. 38 NSW Cat Fanciers’ Association Inc.
