I brought a kitten home, it looked small, I bathed it, and now it seems to have skin issues—what types are there, and does it need a vet?
Feline skin disease includes external types (fungal, bacterial, parasitic, allergic) and internal types (seborrhea, immune, endocrine, nutritional). Common ones are fungal (ringworm), bacterial, parasitic. Ringworm causes hair loss, itch, round scaly patches; use a Wood's lamp at home, but see a vet to confirm and avoid spread.

Scottish Fold
The Scottish Fold's ears fold neatly forward over the head, earning it a place among the 'elf' cats. It is said that in 1961, a farm cat in Scotland gave birth to a litter containing a strange kitten with white fur, folded ears, and an owl-like face. Named after its birthplace near Coupar Angus, Scotland, and its folded ears, the breed became known as the 'Scottish Fold'.
Does Lactoferrin for Cats Boost Immunity, or Is It a Waste of Money?
Lactoferrin isn't a scam — it's an iron-binding glycoprotein in milk with broad antimicrobial activity against bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites, and it supports gut-barrier function. For healthy adult cats on good food it adds little, but puppies (1–3 months), post-illness recovery, chronically soft-stooled, and senior cats can benefit. It's a supplement, not a drug: ~10–20 mg/kg/day, avoid in kidney disease, and see a vet for real symptoms like diarrhea or vomiting.
