Hi furriends,
So my cat Krypto has had issues with bald spots. He has usually has one on each outer hind leg near his bum. And his belly is bald but varies in patchiness. They get better then worse and they seem to continuously change.
I brought him to the vet in the summer and the dr seemed to think it was fleas. I thought this was weird because Larry my other cat has none of these symptoms. So he was on 6 months of flea treatment (both cats). It seemed to help I thought. But still Krypto is still over grooming those areas.
The vet tested his stool and they ruled out any parasites as well. They suggested changing food in case of allergies and still no help. His bald spots are still bothering me. I’m thinking it’s anxiety possibly. I would bring him back to the vet but they just keep thinking it’s fleas even though there is no proof of fleas on him. Only the bald patches.
He is a happy kitty and very loved.
Does anyone have any ideas of what else I can do?
here are pictures
Thanks for reading
