hi guys and girls i have a 7yr old black female short haired tabby cat and i have noticed she has had these nasty scabs mainly along her spine, back of the neck and on top of her head and they are getting alot worse.i 1st noticed them about 6months ago and just assumed she had been fighting with another cat, i now know thats not the case!.
my cat (pickles) is in fine spirit she is still very active, big appetite, some what affectionate.
to be honest i know i should take her to the vet but at 50 bucks a visit i thought id try in here first.
what i really want to know is what these scabs are and whats causing them????????.
i though i should also mention that she isnt real fussed by them she has always been one of those cats who constantly groom herself, but does not bite or scratch at them much, the only thing that does bother her is when i pick the scabs off the end of her back where her tail starts she gives a meow and moves aways from me but any other scabs i pick she seems to enjoy it by purrring and falling asleep.
im very concerned can you please help me cheers
