Maybe a week ago, I thought I noticed that the fur at the base of Grim's tail looked kind of sparse compared to further up his tail. I didn't notice him overly licking it or anything though, so I thought maybe that's just how it's always been, but I didn't notice until he lost all the fat from around his tail.
But a few days ago, it looked like there was a spot on his right front leg that had a bit less fur. On further inspection, there is a small red spot there, maybe a bug bite, maybe a cut, idk? But he keeps licking it and making the fur loss more apparent and that worries me.
On top of that, the ear infections he had when I adopted him in March STILL aren't gone, and the spot where the vet shaved him to take blood on 3/29/11 is still not all grown back. :[
I'm worried that either he's got allergies that are making him itchy, he's got some sort of hair... growing disorder.. :/ OR I'll get there and they will pat me on the back and tell me not to worry so much. C___C
