I have been using Bag Balm a couple times a week on Cleo who is adrenal and has cutaneous lymphoma. No green poop even though she does lick at it, but I do limit its use so she won't OD on it.

I've found that warm soaks in a tupperware bowl, so she can feel the bottom of the bowl with her feet while I support her body, with mild antibacterial liquid handsoap added really seems to sooth her skin. At the end of the soak, I put hair conditioner on her and then rinse. She must enjoy it because she almost goes to sleep while soaking.

In fact, I've tried the warm soak on the healthy wiggle worms and they relax to the point where I can clean their ears without tying them down.

Anyone else have any experience with cutaneous lymphoma?
