I noticed on one of Jack's pads on his back foot there is skin peeling off. It's still attached to his pad and it's about the size of the whole pad. Is this normal? I've never noticed this on him before or on my other cat.

Don't know how bad it is, but one of my cats will have some loose skin on his paws from time to time. I think it's about like when my feet get scaly and I need a pedicure. It never seems to bother him.

It's a very thin layer, almost like a callus peeling. I don't see a wound or anything and he's not bleeding so I guess I'll just keep an eye on it and let it slough off. Thanks!
