Best Answer

If your cat has a bald spot on their inner thigh, this was probably caused by your cat attempting to clean itself or to scratch an irritation. A bald spot may also occur after the cat has been stung by an insect and is trying to take it out or itch it. You should go to the vet to get it checked out unless you know it is an obsessive habit. Then you should use a frangranced shampoo that is a de-shedder. This would take out some unwanted, dirty hair but when the cat goes to lick the fur, it tastes gross. If you do this about 4-5 times over about 2 1/2 months, I think the cat will stop licking. Oh, and the inner thigh is a natural place to lick when the cat is bored, so I also suggest getting the cat more treat-filled toys or scratching posts if not declawed.

Why has my hamster got a bald patch?

That really depends where the bald patch is. Its normal for most hamsters to have a bald patch behind their ears. If its somewhere else on their body its likely that its caused from stress. This could be because the hamster is not getting a proper balance of 12 hours light and 12 hours dark, has felt an extreme change in temperature, or is particularly cold or hot. Noises can also cause a hamster stress.

Is a bald spot bad for your cat?

It depends. It might be bald in a certain spot because the cat may be shedding badly there, or (bad part) it may have ringworm. Ringworm is a disease and you shouldn't handle cats when they have this. There is a medicine for it you can put in milk and it might help. So, if your cat has a bald spot, hopefully it is shedding!Love,Anastaisa
