Why does my outdoor cat get nose and eye blisters in summer?

Poor Girl! This look a lot like wounds from chasing prey. It could also be bacterial infection from allergies. Alleriges, though, usually cause scabs else where like under the chin or around the neck. I would have your vet take a look at them as some of them look quite swollen and she may need some antibiotics. I hope this helps!

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concerns about Buttercup! Based on the photo you provided, it appears as though what is shown in the video could be blisters or cysts that have developed on the chin region. I would recommend applying a warm water washcloth to the area 2-3 times daily and consider applying a veterinary product with benzoyl peroxide in it. I would also consider having a veterinarian take a look at the area as an in person evaluation would give you more of an answer. The veterinarian can take a small needle and see if any contents can be expressed from the area to confirm if it is a cyst or not. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction!

Poor Squeekers. This could be due to allergy or insect hypersensitivity. I would be sure that he is on adequate parasite prevention such as Revolution. In some cats lesions such as these can be autoimmune. I would recommend trying to keep indoors if possible to see if they start resolving. If not I would recommend a vet visit to see if the cause can be determined. Good luck and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Rainstorm could have allergies with a secondary infection from them. She could also have an insect bite hypersensitivity. Either way, she should see the vet for a better diagnosis and probably an antibiotic. Best wishes to you and Rainstorm!

These little bumps are often caused by knats and insect bite allergies. In addition to what you are doing before Luna goes out I'd put some cat safe flea and insect repellent on a cloth and wipe the ears, forehead and neck area. Please do not get this in her eyes and nose. This will help keep the knats and insects off her when she's outside. Then use the wound spray when she comes inside to treat the sores. Usually as the weather cools and there are less insects the skin sores will heal. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Luna.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It is difficult to know exactly what is going on without being able to look at her. This may be due to an infection for example. I recommend that you have her evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. They would be able to evaluate her and proceed with therapy accordingly. Best of luck!

The scabs on Moonbeams' nose could be small wounds, or could be from something like allergies. If the scabs are on the pink part of her nose and if they appear ulcerative at all they could be a sign of squamous cell carcinoma, a type of cancer that is more common in areas exposed to the sun. I would guess the black area near her mouth is normal pigment which sometimes forms as cats get older. I would recommend having Moonbeam examined by your veterinarian for a diagnosis.
