My cat has soars on her neck where I had a harness on her. I took off the harness and am wondering what can I put on the soars that's safe?
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! If this picture is representative of the actual lesion, I would not proceed with any therapy as it will likely heal on its own. However, it is difficult to know for sure without evaluating her and just looking at a picture. I would continue to monitor the area and see if it resolves on its own. If it does not or it worsens, have her evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Good luck and have a good night!

My cat Harley scratched himself pretty bad on the side of the face (with his own paw) during an ear infection. We’ve been treating the ear infection with antibiotic ear drops, but the cut isn’t healing because every time it scabs, it gets itchy and H
Hi! You will have to get Harley a cone to wear so he will stop scratching this open. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=cone+collar+cat&ref=nb_sb_noss_2 You need to use this hot spot spray gel 3-4 times per day until it has healed. After it is healed you can remove the cone. https://www.amazon.com/Vetericyn-Antimicrobial-Hydrogel-Relief-Spray/dp/B01NAT10UC/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=vetericyn+hot+spot&qid=1588463707&sr=8-3

My female cat has a some type of alergy and is broke out on her back to the point that is seeping is there a natural remedy I can use on her.
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! This is possibly due to allergies. It really comes down to figuring out what is causing her allergies so that they can be treated or the specific allergen avoided. A secondary infection is likely and also needs to be addressed. There are many things that can cause allergies though in most cases they can be broken down into 3 big categories: flea, food and environmental allergies. Allergies are usually worked up in a stepwise fashion starting with flea allergies as this is the easiest and cheapest to take care of. If not on a flea preventative, then it would be a good idea to get started on one. If already on one then it would be a good idea to change to something else (there are many new products out in the market). If not improved in 1-3 months then it is time to move on and check for food allergies by switching to a novel diet (new protein and new carbohydrate). If that does not seem to be the issue then you are left out having to check for envir

What all do I need for a new kitten
Great question, and congrats on your new kitten! You will need a litter box, unscented litter, a scoop for the litter box, food bowl, water bowl, a kitten formulated food, and kitten safe toys. You may also consider getting him a scratching post. In terms of food, the brands I recommend include Royal Canin, Hill's Science diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. It's important Luna is feed a kitten formulated food because he needs higher amounts of protein, calcium, and calories than adult cats, and a kitten food will provide that for him. You will also need to take him to the vet to get vaccines, flea and deworming treatments, and heartworm treatment. Good luck, I hope this helps :-)
