This morning I discovered Palas has developed a third spot this time on his head in front of his ear. First posts about this here: http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=114654
Palas has shown no sign of being ill other than these spots appearing. I haven't seen any sign of fleas. For 2 mos in a row the vet at Petsmart Banfield said there wasn't even any flea dirt present. I don't like that vet because he's very short. I believe he makes quick decisions because that vet office is so packed. So I found some other smaller vets around my area but they are closed today. I'll call tomorrow for appointments or walk-ins.
In the meantime, has anyone seen anything like this? The spots are all exactly the same:
Additionally, DeeDee hasn't shown any sign of this problem at all in the almost 2 mos since the first spot appeared on Palas. I'm wondering if it's some kind of food allergy. Again, yes I will be taking him to a vet this week. This isn't an emergency situation.
Here are pictures of this new spot:
Thank you in advance for your thoughts

In the meantime, has anyone seen anything like this? The spots are all exactly the same:
- loss of hair about the size of a dime
- a little bloody, but no sign of cuts or reason
- very minor itch, I see him paw at it a little but not very often
- the skin is flat not raised at all
- there is never enough blood to drip or run. its just enough to color the area of skin
