1. Kittens gradually grow in their milk teeth around 2 months after birth. Kittens with grown teeth can easily inflame the female cat’s nipples. Cause wound infection.

2. When a female cat injures her nipples during a fight, it may be just a skin injury at first, but due to the kittens sucking milk, the wound infection may be aggravated.

3. Milk accumulates and stagnates in the mammary glands of female cats, causing the female cat’s breasts to become hot, hard, swollen and painful, leading to nipple inflammation.

Solutions to cat nipple inflammation:

1. In order to relieve inflammation, some antibiotics and glucocorticoids can be used.

2. Sometimes you can also apply some fish stone ointment around the breasts to dissipate inflammation.

3. If there is suppuration, clean the cat’s breasts every day. Find the pus outlet to drain the pus, rinse the pus outlet, and clean the wound before applying medicine.
