My two cats are almost completely bald on their bellies, neck and front/back legs. I've seen one of the cats pulling her hair out while grooming. They have no reason to be stressed. They go outdoors at will, have a safe, fenced in backyard and screened in porch, lots of fresh water and food and have plenty of feline/human company. What could be the matter? I'm concerned.

Allergies or a severe reaction to an irritate in their environment, most likely.

Lets start with the easiest one first. Since they go outside, do you treat them with a monthly flea treatment from the vet or use other methods to ensure they're not getting bitten? Flea allergies are very common.
