Cats can suffer a variety of skin problems, and -- as a provider for three in-house and two feral cats -- I can vouch for the cost of having to go to a vet for each one -- it's a lot. Cats develop abcesses and itches with easy frequency. The ability to find out if you can take care of it inexpensively and at home can be a huge savings. (h) A comprehensive work.
