Hi all, today I noticed that my cat had something going on with her left paw. The furthest paw pad seemed to have lost all the fur around it, and the skin around the pad is crusty, thick, and flaky. She does not show any signs of pain when it is handled or touched.

She has an appointment at the vet for possible pancreatitis follow-up at the end of the month. I'm currently waiting for the vet's reply about this, but I'm just worried if this is something that she should be brought in sooner for. I am also worried about this being ringworm, but she is a strictly indoor cat.

Any advice would be helpful.

Thank you!

The vet ended up asking me to bring her in anyway and figured it's an yeast infection. Fingers crossed it clears up fast and doesn't happen again.
