Cutaneous horns are seldom seen in cats, especially in young ones. A case of a Persian cat, male, eight months old, with a history of sneezes is described. During physical examination, multiple horns on the all footpads were noticed. The histopathological diagnosis of excisional biopsy was dense hyperkeratosis, with numerous keratinocytes above hyperplastic epidermis and no evidence of malignity. There was no association between the lesions and infection with leukemia virus. The treatment was mensal trimming off the cutaneous horns and clinical follow up of the animal.
