Hello!

My cat is a 1 year old male. Today while playing with him, I noticed that he has completely no hair on just a small region of his inner thigh (right). I have never noticed him grooming excessively and it is just that one region that is hairless. Any thoughts? My vet clinic is closed for the holidays and will open next week which is when I plan to take him. But is this an emergency? Any advice would be great. Thank you

Hi

It does not sound like an emergency.  Can you take a photo?

Oh, that doesn't look good.  Have you changed litter recently? Might me an allergy if you have. Also, get him to the vet to have that checked out.
