Kitten losing clumps of fur - very young.

Little Help Please

A little history:
I have a stray cat- my parents took in. she was pregnant when I brought her home and I was here for when she delivered.

kittens are just over a week old. The 2 older kittens were born a day before the last.

The last kitten born is the one Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m having problems with; it seems he is losing fur. I noticed a few days ago he didnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t have any fur under his chin. Few days later I am noticing itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s getting crusty; maybe itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s starting to heal? Not sure. But I notice he is losing fur on the top of his head as well.

My plans are to bring him into the vet…Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m just wondering if any of you may know if this is common, whats wrong with him, and what I can do to help.

I have a picture of the kitten along side is a picture of his brother who is obviously normal.

Call the vet ASAP!!!!!! That looks nasty whatever it is. Please get that kitten looked at- make sure you call first before bringing him/her in-- there are lots of nasty germs at the vets, and these little ones don't need exposed to them before having their shots.

Your instinct is correct, he needs a vet asap.

Please let us know how it goes/went.
