From the President
This is our first online newsletter and which I hope you will all enjoy. For those members who do not have
computer access we will be printing up the newsletter and distributing around the shows . Sandra Dukes has
done a great job putting this newsletter together so thanks Sandra as it is not an easy job. I would like to also
thank those members who have submitted articles and photos and just say keep them coming.
We held our 2012 Cat of the Year Presentation in February and would like to express my thanks to our Major
Sponsor Sharpe Laboratories for their generous cash sponsorship of this great day. Without Michael
Sharpe’s support and that of Yvonne Saunders this event would not be possible. Thank you also to Jeanette
Rossiter from Oz-Pet for their donation. Also, to those members who generously donated to our raffle, the
prizes were just amazing and thank you. Photos will be in our June Journal.
We are in the process of updating some of our procedures/forms and these will be available from our
website shortly.
The NSW CFA State Show is on 27 April 2013 so don’t forget to send your entries in and I look forward to
seeing you on the day.
Joanne Greentree
From the Editor
On the following pages are the photos of the
Cats of the Year 2012. Thankyou to the

the awards night will be in our next issue.
I am looking for ideas for articles that may be
of interest to you. Please feel free to contact
me via email (sandra@norskatt.com) or at the
shows (usually stewarding or around the
fluffies) with any ideas, stories or photos. In
future editions, I will have a regular vet

Feline Acne & Stud Tail
Feline acne is probably more common than is generally
appreciated, as most cases are mild and pass unnoticed. More
severe cases, however, may respond slowly to treatment and
seriously detract from the appearance of the cat.
Two main types of gland are found in the dermal layer of the
skin of the cat - the sweat glands and the sebaceous glands.
Most of the sebaceous glands are associated with hair follicles
and produce an oily secretion, sebum, which waterproofs the
hairs and maintains the suppleness of the skin. In addition, a
collection of much larger sebaceous glands are found on the
chin, the lips, the dorsal (top) surface of the base of the tail and
also the eyelids, prepuce and
scrotum. The collection of
glands under the skin in the
chin area is sometimes referred
to as the submental organ and
the glands around the base of
the tail are known as the
supracaudal organ.
The oily secretion of these
larger sebaceous glands appears to have a role in territorial
marking and cats will repeatedly rub their chin, lips, temporal
area and base of tail over certain objects. In time the secretions
build up on favourite marking objects and may be seen as black,
greasy patches. Cat owners may have noticed that they are
'marked' by their pets on returning home. Cats will also often
mark certain objects at feeding time.
Overactivity of the submental organs is a relatively common
finding and is seen as excessive greasiness of the overlying fur
and skin. This is particularly noticeable on the chin of white or
pale coloured cats and appears as a yellow, greasy
discolouration. There may also be flecks of black, greasy
material on the chin which may be mistaken for flea dirt; this is
sometimes called 'cruddy chin'.
Overactivity of the glands at the base of the tail is often known
as 'stud tail'. It has been suggested that activity of the
supracaudal organ around the base of the tail depends on
testosterone (the male hormone). Stud tail is most common in
entire males, but, despite its name, is also seen in neuters and
females.
This overactivity of the sebaceous glands predisposes to feline
acne which is seen in varying degrees of severity. The condition
remains poorly understood in terms of an underlying cause and
is assumed to represent a form of keratinisation disorder
(keratin is a protein which is the main component of hair and
nails) where the cat's hair follicles produce excessive keratinous/
sebaceous material. It may occur at any age and in any breed or
sex. In mild cases, the associated hair follicles become plugged
with the black sebaceous material forming comedones
(commonly referred to as a blackhead). Secondary bacterial
infection may result, leading to folliculitis (inflammation of the
hair follicles) and formation
of papules and pustules
from which beads of pus
may be expressed. In
severe
cases
of
inflammation of multiple
follicles, pyoderma (an
31
eruption characterised by
pus in the skin) develops, with a mass of discharging tracts
or sinuses. Cats with mild
feline acne or stud tail show
no associated clinical signs
but in severe cases there may
be
inflammation
and
irritation of the overlying
skin. The point of the chin
may become grossly swollen
and there may be an enlargement of the draining lymph nodes
of the head and neck.
Treatment
Treatment of cases of feline acne and stud tail involves removal
of excess sebum and hence prevention of comedone formation
and secondary infection. An antibacterial surgical scrub, such as
chlorhexidine, can initially be used for this purpose two or three
times daily. In mild cases no further treatment is necessary, but
in cases showing extensive secondary infection, antibiotic
therapy, preferably selected on the basis of bacterial culture and
sensitivity tests, will be required.
Topical preparations are of very limited value for severe cases
because they are soon licked or cleaned off by the patient, and
antibiotics should be given orally for four to six weeks. Severe
cases may also be treated with steroids to reduce the
inflammation. Keeping the acne at bay may require clipping and
daily application of chlorhexidine. Other treatments which have
been tried include mupirocin (Bactroban; Beecham - a human
drug not licensed for use in cats). Topical retinoids may be
considered for long term control of a mild case.
Supplementation with veterinary formulated essential fatty
acids (evening primrose oil/fish oil) orally on a daily basis has
been reported to help some cases, eg, Viacutan (Boehringer),
Efavet (Efamol). Most cases respond satisfactorily but some
cases with serious secondary infection may require prolonged
treatment.
There may be recurrence and in some cases the only method of
controlling the excessive sebum secretion is to continue daily
cleansing indefinitely. Occasionally acne is associated with
fungal infections including dematophytosis (ringworm) and,
rarely, with demodectic mange.
Prevention
In some cats with a tendency to chin acne, the use of ceramic or
metal feeding dishes, instead of plastic ones, may help to
prevent the problem from recurring or deteriorating. Chin acne
is sometimes more severe in cats which are messy feeders, so
scrupulous attention to hygiene after meals, or a change to food
which can be eaten more neatly, may help to reduce the
problem.

Cats’ Kitchen
Below are a few recipes your human can make for you. Helping them is important - how else can you be in
the way, being annoying and get extras whilst the treats are made?
Cheese Balls
Mackerel Munchies
Ingredients:
1 tspn instant porridge oats
1 egg yolk, whisked
15g pumpkin, peeled, cooked and finely diced
80g fresh beef mince
1/2 tspn freshly chopped flat leafed parsley
20g mozzarella cheese
1 tspn vegetable oil
Method:
1.
Soak the oats in the whisked egg yolk for 10 minutes
2.
Add the pumpkin, mince and parsley to the egg and
oat mix and knead. Shape the mixture into six balls
3.
Slice the mozzarella into three pieces. Sandwich each
slice between two meatballs and flatten down
slightly
4.
Heat the oil in a frypan and fry the meatballs on a
medium heat for 3 minutes on each side
5.
Remove and cool. Cut each portion into bite size
pieces before serving. Store any unused portions in
the fridge (should last 2-3 days in the fridge)
Ingredients:
1/2 cup canned mackerel (drained)
1 tsp vegetable oil
1/2 tsp brewers yeast (optional)
1 cup whole grain breadcrumbs
1 beaten egg
Method:
1.
Preheat oven to 175C. Using a large bowl, mash drained
mackerel into pieces using a fork.
2.
Combine with vegetable oil, breadcrumbs, egg and brewers
yeast if desired. Mix them well.
3.
Drop mixture by 1/4 teaspoon into a greased cookie sheet.
Bake for 8 mins.
4.
Take out and let it cool and then refrigerate.
Tip: Store homemade cat treats in a tightly air-sealed container so
they will not dry out quickly and be hard for your cats to chew.
Tuna Ball Treats
What cat doesn't enjoy a little tuna now and then? This
quick recipe will give your pet plenty of tasty tuna treats to
enjoy for several weeks if stored in an air-tight container in
a cool place.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup of whole-wheat flour
1/2 cup of powdered milk
1/2 cup of tuna packed in oil
1 large beaten egg
1/4 cup of water
Method:
1.
Grease a cookie sheet with margarine or use one
lined with a silicone sheet.
2.
In a bowl, mix the flour and powdered milk together.
In a separate bowl, combine the tuna and egg
together, mashing the tuna until it is no longer
chunky.
3.
Add the tuna mixture to the dry ingredients, and add
the water a little at a time until a slightly sticky dough
ball is formed.
4.
Using two spoons or a small cookie scoop, create
balls and place them about one-inch apart on a nonstick cookie sheet.
5.
Cook in the oven at 175C for approximately 25
minutes. Cool completely before serving to your pet.
Alternative recipe: Substitute pureed, cooked chicken
combined with one tablespoon of cod liver oil for the tuna
packed in oil.
Chewy Cat Treats for Cats
Ingredients:
1 large egg
1 4-oz jar chicken and brown rice baby
1/4 cup parsley, coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 tablespoons water
1 cup brown rice flour
1/2 cup cooked white (or brown) rice
Method:
1.
Place a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat oven to
160C
2.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
3.
In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, baby food, parsley,
olive oil, and water. Add brown rice flour and cooked
rice. Stir to incorporate. The mixture will be thick but
spreadable.
4.
Spread mixture onto prepared baking sheet creating a
rectangle that is about 1cm thick.
5.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven. Let rest
until cool enough to handle, then slice soft dough into bitesized pieces.
6.
Return pieces to the oven to bake for another 8 minutes.
7.
Remove from the oven. Allow to cool completely.
8.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
Lucky Chicken Dinner
Ingredients:
1 can cooked chicken chunks (or equivalent fresh cooked chicken)
1/2 cup cooked rice
1/2 cup frozen broccoli, cooked/steamed
1/4 cup steamed carrots, chopped
chicken broth
Method:
1.
Put all the ingredients into a food processor except the
broth.
2.
Process ingredients on high, then slowly pour in the broth
until the stuff takes-on a pasty consistency. Will keep in the 32
fridge for up to a week.

Notice to Advertisers
The Trade Practices Act 1974 came into force on October 1st 1974.
It is the advertiser’s responsibility to ensure advertisements submitted for publication comply with the Act and
that the provisions of the Act are strictly complied with. In cases of doubt, advertisers are asked to seek legal
advice before submitting advertising material.
The Editorial Committee reserves the right to withhold publication of any material whatsoever. Views and
opinions expressed in this journal are those of the correspondents and contributors concerned and are not
necessarily those of the Editorial Committee, printers or publishers. Names and addresses of correspondents
may be withdrawn from publication on request but must be supplied to the Editor.
Disputes
From time to time, members refer matters to the NSW Cat Fanciers Association Inc (NSW CFA) when it is not
appropriate.
For example, disputes between members in relation to the sale of cats are usually private matters to be
determined by the contractual arrangements between members. Disputes on such matters should be resolved
by the courts, not by NSWCFA.
Members are requested to refrain from referring matters to NSW CFA which are a private or domestic matter
or which should be properly resolved by the Courts.
Members should be aware that the Consumer Claims Tribunal is available to resolve many disputes in the
relation to the supply of goods to a consumer and NSWCFA recommends that matters that fall within the
jurisdiction of that Tribunal and which cannot be resolved personally should be referred to that Tribunal.
