Hello
I went away for a week and asked my roommates to look after my cat (they also have a kitten that's about 6 months old.) When I got back today I noticed my cat had a large patch of fur missing on the side of his neck (larger than a quarter) and a few little scabs above it and one scab on the back of his neck.
He is an indoor cat.4 years old.
He doesn't seem bothered by the scabs or bald patch. The skin seems a little flaky/ dry though. Hair is starting to grow back. I don't see him itching that spot in excess (we're in a small apartment I can see him all the time.) He's eating normally, playing, sleeping...
Don't know what to do I feel terrible this was going on while I was away
