Hello everyone,
Today I noticed that the back of my cat's ears look quite bald, there's still some hair there but they look rather "thin" of hair.
Months ago (could be even a year now, I'm not sure) I noticed that one of her ears had two little balding spots, in one of our visits to the vet I asked him and he said nothing seemed to be wrong, those little bald spots had remained the same or so I thought until today.
She's almost 11 years old and she is Siamese looking (not a pure-breed), I wonder if her age or breed ancestry could have something to do with this.
As extra information I've been giving her L-lysine for about a month to help her with recurrent respiratory infections, I don't know if that's relevant.
I've seen her scratching her ears which I know could be the cause but she doesn't do it often so, I don't know. Today I gave her a bath just in case she may have fleas and I hadn't noticed.
Here are some photos:
I hope you can help me out here.
