How can KatKin recipes help to manage skin issues?

KatKin recipes are rich in omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, which help to maintain your cat’s coat and skin condition as well as promote a healthy skin barrier.

For cats with food-related allergies, we’ll only recommend suitable recipes helping you to avoid ingredients which may be likely to trigger allergic reactions for your cat.


Common Causes of Skin Issues in Cats

For cats, skin issues can be hard to diagnose and have a variety of causes including:

  • Food-related allergies

  • Parasites

  • Stress

  • Environmental allergies

  • Infection or injury

  • Secondary to other health issues


What should you do if your cat is experiencing skin issues?

If your cat is experiencing hair loss, excessive itching, redness, swelling, or visible injury to the skin, it’s a good idea to investigate this further with your vet.

Your vet may also suggest supplements or medications to help combat the symptoms, and we, of course, defer to their expertise as they would know your cat best.
