Hygiene Sphynx Skin Care. In
the Canadian Sphinx like other animals have on the body of the sebaceous
glands that secrete a special lubricant - a protective substance to the skin. At the Sphinx, it looks like a light brown
color, resembling the human sunburn, which can be easily transferred to the surrounding objects. Canadian Sphinx may
well leave a brown stains on the clean clothes, not to mention those places where he likes to sleep. But it is
too abundant selection may indicate that the animal is properly fed (for
example, is too fatty food) or not feeling well. At moderate discharge is
sufficient to wipe the Sphinx, the extent of contamination, damp sponge or
cleaning wipes for the animals, you can "Johnsons Baby" for
children Sphinx should be washed with special
hypoallergenic shampoo for cats (I use the shampoo, "Doctor" -
great suited to my pets!) or baby soap, shampoo
containing PH 5.5. (such as "Johnsons Baby"). . Thoroughly rinse the detergent from the
skin of an animal as a cat can lick the remains of the body surface and the
resulting can be observed: the poisoning, vomiting,
irritation of the skin, etc. After completion of the wash should be well wipe and dry the animal to ensure that it
is not cold. If your Sphynx dandruff, scaling, dryness the skin, it must be lubricated with oil
after a bath for the skin (you can 'Johnsons Baby "). Every cat on the outer side of the tail are the
sebaceous glands. Other breeds of cats under the hair that is not visible,
but all in sphinx mind, and we see black dots, which are
called acne. Acne
(acne) with sphinxes. Skin lesions may be like cats and the cats are
actively used in breeding, As a rule, completely devoid of coat
("rubber"). Acne is also observed in young animals during the
period active puberty. Hormonal regulation of
secretion of sebum can be carried out at four levels: hypothalamus, pituitary, adrenal cortex and
gonads. The sebaceous glands of various locations have different numbers of receptors for hormones. This explains the
fact that the number of animals is often affected certain areas: in the
main - dorsal surface of the tail, back, spine,
face, neck, and submandibular space, the surface of the abdomen. Often destruction capture all the animal body and
lead to hyperpigmentation of the skin. In general, all the hormones in the
body can be divided by stimulating excretion of fat and
suppress. By the hormones that stimulate sebum are ACTH, adrenocortical hormones, androgens,
progesterone. For hormone that suppresses excretion of fat, are estrogens. In
the development of acne plays a significant role of genetic predisposition
and a certain color of the animal. In general, the affected cat blue,
blue-cream and red colors, completely devoid of coat, rarely-flock. In the pathogenesis of acne can distinguish
four mechanisms: A. Hyperproduction of sebum (especially
true for "rubber") Two. Follicular hyperkeratosis - a constant
accumulation of sebum and horny masses inside the follicle and their
constant pressure on the surrounding tissue leads to atrophy of the
sebaceous glands, as well as to expand the mouth of the follicle. Formed
open comedones or blackheads. The black color is
not due to secretion by exogenous contamination or oxidation of sebum, as
it was considered earlier, and melanin. Three. The activity of bacteria. The
greatest role in the development of inflammation in comedones are
Propionobacterium aknes. On the skin hair follicles are found fungi
Pytirosporum, Staphylococcus epidermidis. 4. Inflammation - can occur at any stage of
acne, it can be superficial and deep. We
determined the sphinxes at least two types of acne: A)
comedones. The inflammatory component is weak. Treatment: Salicylic acid
(gel or solution) Deleks-Acne (if mild), Hepar Sulphur-, Zener (with more
severe forms) B)
Ulovatokistoznye acne. This form is characterized by the formation of deep
infiltrates and cystic cavities filled with pus, which may merge with each other and
opened outward through the sinus tract. Often accompanied by vasculitis skin. Exodus - the formation of persistent
scarring. Usually there is a long course of the disease. As a rule, eels
are on the dorsal surface of the tail and along
the spine, and is often due to inflammation in these areas is formed
"shell" (Dead and keratinized skin and fluid
stratification). Treatment: Zener,
Clindamycin (1% liniment and lotion) + doxycycline (Yunidoks) or
minocycline (dosage: 50 mg \ day and up to 30 mg \ day, respectively). Avoid exposure to sunlight. In severe and
advanced cases shows castration. Cleaning the
ears. As the contamination of the ear, it is
necessary to carry out its cleanup. You can use a cotton swab, cotton sticks, a piece of gauze, lotion, cleaning
ears, it can be purchased in veterinary pharmacy. Lotion in the ears, bury each ear, 2-3 drops, massaging, and after 5
minutes, remove the dirt with a cotton swab moistened with the same lotion
(deep in the hearing is not necessary
to climb, you can hurt him enough to collect the visible dirt from the
inside dirt will lead lotion). Eye Care. We do not have sphinx lashes.
Everyone knows, what do you want your eyelashes. They prevent eye contact different particles, which are practically invisible to the eye
but they are present in the air. This is the dust and stuff. In this
function is performed by Sphinx gelatinous discharge, with whom his eyes
from the dust particles are derived, and all particles that are in the air.
Necessary wiping her eyes with a special solution or
tea with a cotton pad. Dry is better not to wipe the drive because in the
eye can get villus and dry cotton pad rather rough
and can cause irritation and redness of the eyes. If you still can not avoid the redness, you can drip or Maksidin
Anandin, but do not abuse and dripping at every opportunity case. If the redness does not subside and
the eye was swollen and painful is necessary to show the kitten the vet.
With the eyes of a Sphinx - trifled with. It is better not to
self-medicate. Grooming a
cat's claws. If you come to trim claws - do not try to cut
them as short as possible - so you risk damaging the vessel and pain the cat. It is better to cut less, but more
often, and for the first time are advised to contact an experienced cat
owners and the veterinarian that he showed how to make cut nails. How
to trim the claws Lock the cat. Hold the tool in his right
hand. Cats claws are hidden, so you need to
gently press a finger while holding a pillow between your thumb and
forefinger, so that the claw appeared.
