Hello! This sweet kitty has been experiencing a growth of bacteria (assumed) around his chin. We are diligent about water changing and have a clean household. Do you have an idea of what direction to pursue?

Thank you for contacting PetCoach with your question about your kitty. It looks like he may have feline acne. He will need to see a vet to have this definitively diagnosed and treated. Treatment includes a medicated wash. I would also change his bowls to metal or ceramic if they are plastic. Give his vet a call now to make him an appointment. I hope this helps!
