Archie has a bald patch on his back

[alisonandarchie]

Thank you Pav He is doing very well and it has not happened again. It could have been a change of pouch, he shares a gourmet perl with Parki every day. They usually have chicken but bought some beef ones but now back to chicken after I read your post about food allergies. He also gets quite stressed when other cats come in the garden but since Parki has started chasing them away this has improved.

I will take him to the vets if it happens again.

How is Archie doing Alison? DId you take him back to your vet.

That has crossed my mind too Think it will be best to get him to the vet for a check up

Just had another thought.....ringworm

Thanks Pav. In the last week I gave him a few pouches of gourmet perl beef which he does not normally have, so that might fit in

Oh Alison first thing came to mind was Fleas but if Archie don't have any then it may be food allergy?
Sending some gentle hugs for Archie

Thanks Gill, I will do that. He seems ok in himself but this is not normal

Sorry no idea but think if any more comes off maybe you need to chat to a vet

Archie does get little bald patches on his tummy from time to time. He also has scaly skin and was at vets recently and told this is ok . He does not have fleas either.

This morning a lump of fur came off his back and wondering if anyone has an idea of what this is

Off to work now but back at lunchtime
