Yes, cats can get pimples and acne, too. Affected cats
have small blackheads or pimples on their faces and chins. One of the common
reasons for cat acne is a reaction to plastic food and water bowls. Cats have a
habit of rubbing their faces against their food bowls to mark them. However,
some cats are extremely hypersensitive to plastic and develop skin breakouts.
For hypersensitive cats, simple contact with their plastic food bowls is also
an important predisposing factor of feline acne. Once you notice the breakouts,
it is a good idea to switch your pet’s plastic ware to bowls that are made of
ceramic, stainless steel, or glass. If your cat has sensitive skin and is prone
to acne, the water bowl should be thoroughly washed and cleaned every day.
Bring your pet to your vet clinic Fort Collins, CO for a thorough examination so the appropriate
medication can be given.
