Use a vet-prescribed disinfectant or soap to clean the area the first time. Try to remove dirt, dead skin cells, detached hair, and other debris. Your vet will probably recommend that you wash the affected area regularly. This will remove debris, lessen the chance of infection and, depending on the product, moisturize the area. Your vet may recommend or prescribe an antibacterial wash, like chlorhexidine. Your veterinarian may recommend using it two to three times daily. In cases of severe infection, your veterinarian may prescribe broad-spectrum antibiotics. This is important, as a bad infection could spread from the tail or back of the cat. Follow your veterinarian's directions carefully. Don't skip any doses, if possible. Finish the entire course of antibiotics even if the condition seems to have improved. Some antibiotics your vet may prescribe include amoxicillin, tetracycline and ampicillin. In addition to cleaning and washing the affected area, you may also need to apply topical medications. These medications are designed to help fight infection and promote healing of the skin. Some medications might include: Mupirocin Retinoids Once you've started to see progress in the healing of your cat's Stud Tail, you should take some steps to prevent future outbreaks. Ultimately, this is fairly easy to do and may be accomplished by washing your cat on a regular basis. You may prevent future outbreaks by doing light washes of your cat's tail or hind area. By focusing on the afflicted area, you'll save your cat the dissatisfaction of a full bath. You may be able to discontinue regular washes after your cat has aged. Consult your vet about this possibility. Some cats may benefit from anti-seborrheal shampoo. This condition is caused by hormone fluctuations, which are more common in intact males.
