Cat Missing Fur On Hind Legs
Alex it turned out was not in any discomfort.
Cat missing fur on hind legs. The skin is in perfect condition no scales dryness or rash. She seems completely unfazed by the condition is in no distress at all. Hair loss or alopecia in cats can range from treatable to serious.
And a scaly ring of missing hair is a sign. I currently have a cat that is 7 years old and showing signs of anxiety. Hes jumpy at any noises hides for hours is licking and biting his front legs to the point he has patches of fur missing and.
In a quiet room pet your cat until she is relaxed. It also seems that this hair is not shedding but possibly being digested. Besides your cat losing hair on places such as the underbelly underside of the tail hind legs sides or genital area you may notice these other signs of alopecia in cats.
My cat is has fleas. If you notice your cat is losing hair take your cat to your veterinarian for an exam. This behavior is often associated with some new stressor in the cats life.
He must have dragged himself a long way because the fur on his hind legs was scraped. She is not grooming herself more than normal. She is very OCD so I believe this to be true.
Liz I have a nine year old Turkish Van mix who began losing the fur on her belly and the inner thighs of her hind legs about six months ago. Deworming with vet recommended products is required. Your vet can tell you for sure and prescribe antifungal creams or ointments medicated baths or even oral meds.
