What's wrong with the black stuff on the cat's mouth?
When you usually comb your cat, pay more attention to the condition of the cat's skin and hair, so that you can detect abnormalities in time and help the cat solve them in time. For example, what’s wrong with the black stuff on the cat’s mouth?
If you find that there are granular black things on your cat’s mouth that are not dirty and cannot be wiped off, then your cat is most likely suffering from folliculitis.
The main symptom is that there are small black spots on the cat's chin, and some cats also appear on the tail. The common reason for the appearance of this black chin is that the cat food they usually eat is too oily.
This is also a cat acne. If it is serious, it can easily lead to redness, swelling and pustules in the affected area. Male cats will also have black chins when they have excess hormone secretion and endocrine disorders. Likewise, cats who are stressed out may develop it too.
Generally, obese cats will have black stuff on their mouths for no special reason. This is caused by overnutrition.
