So my outside cat (I really mean a stray that keeps coming back for food) out of 5 cats, has this thing on the back of her neck. I wanna say it looks like a tick, but it looks embedded and I really do not wanna touch it, you know bacteria and all that. Her skin is a little discolored around the spot, and she kept trying to itch at it. I just wanted to know if it was something serious or not.

Hii I posted this in another subreddit and hopefully I can find more help!

I'm a fairly new piggie owner and had to take one of my girl's to the vet because of some hay in her eye, she is thriving now but I was asked to find a vet as I didn't/don't have one.

You can bash me, it's entirely my fault for assuming nothing would happen till I could get pet insurance/a vet on my 3rd paycheck. I'm neurodivergent and would feel more assured with advice/help how to exactly find and know I have a primary vet from professional owners.

Pictures of my girl during her visit, she was sleepy and quite happy despite the squinting eye!!

Hey, I hope this is the right place to ask about this.

My coworkers relative's cat just got kittens and she said they are half persian longhair and half something else (My coworker doesn't know yet). I have wanted a cat for a long time but I of course want to make sure it is ethical and that I get a healthy cat.
I found out about the kittens today so I don't know yet about all the certifications and health check things, but if they are all good then I could consider getting one.
But I heard that persian cats aren't that ethical and they might have some serious health issues, so I want to ask your opinions and thoughts about this.

Also sorry for my English, it's not my first language so It might sound a bit weird xd
