Hello! I just got my new kitten from a shelter yesterday. It was a clean shelter and well known, I trust them. I noticed a perfect looking circle of baldness and the skin isn’t red, swollen, irritated or anything. It was a little dry with flakes but I scratched it off and it looks fine now. It’s skin colored/pink. She doesn’t have it on her other leg. I’m hoping this isn’t ringworm since I have two children + 2 dogs that already play with our new kitty. She doesn’t even notice it’s there it seems like, doesn’t lick it or anything. I’m attaching a picture. What do

It looks like that part where they walk on their back paw area. Quinn has 2 bald patches there and dvm said it was normal at one of his yearly cu.

I’m hoping it’s just a pressure spot! I honestly don’t think it’s ringworm but Google can be a scary place & make u think the worst 🤣
