So when you find that the kitten is constantly scratching the ears and shaking his head, you should pay attention, and even have scabs, ulcers, and pustules...

3. Scabies: Cats under one year old are prone to infections with Scabies, which are a special mold. The typical symptom is irregularly rounded in the hair removal area, mixed with scaly spots and scars, and sometimes allergic papules. This Scabies are caused by strong infectiousness and zoonotic effects. Once discovered, it must be treated and controlled immediately.
If the kitten has skin disease, its related instruments should be thoroughly disinfected, scrubbed or sprayed with 0.5% concentration of bleach, or sprayed on the surface. If it is exposed to sunlight, 5 to 6 hours a day for a week, the effect will be better. It is best to expose the cat to cure it. Since mold will survive in the form of spores, the cat treatment will last for about one week to ten days after it is effective. The same is true for disinfection of the utensils, so as to avoid the chance of recurrence. Otherwise, the remaining mold spores can survive for 3 or 4 years.
