Guest guest Posted January 14, 2005 Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 Hello Sarah, Feline acne is usually caused by the cat eating from a plastic bowl. Use only glass, ceramic, or stainless bowls for your kitty and you will see the acne gradually disappear. As long as you are feeding from the plastic he will continue to pick up stuff from the plastic, including germs it harbors, rancid fats it holds in and even hydrocarbons from the slow deterioration of the plastic itself.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2005 Report Share Posted January 15, 2005 My kitty had feline acne and always used glass bowls. Thankfully it went away right away, all I had to do was put aloe vera gel on it.
