Cat with bald spot and black spots

Hi,



My cat has this almost bald spot of fur right near its anus and there are tiny black particles all around it. He is extermely semsitive over there and I dont know what it is? Any ideas?

Answer by Kate
Hi sounds like it could be a parasite problem. Often fur loss is caused by the itching due to parasites. the little black specks could be blood specks from the parasite bites.

best to take him to the vets for a proper diagnosis of the type of parasite and the correct treatment.

best wishes Kate
