No the missing/white area is not near the sub-q site. It is on the left side of his back, lower, near the spine, just above the hip-- kind of in the pelvic area.
I do remember when he had one of his enemas, he got some of schmuck on his fur. It kind of dried.. I was trying to wash it off, Artie was squirming, going crazy. I know I pulled out a bit of fur in that area. I wonder if it is related to that, but it seems to enlarging, along his spine.
I am going to ask the cardiologist about it.. I know she is a Cardiologist, but any thoughts would help.
I also plan to mention it to the N Vet when I call him.

Got another reply from H&G about that icky stuff. Now they say it could be skin that did not mix well.. that is really what it looks like, now that it is dry.. a piece of skin that is hard.. almost as if when a callous is cut, that is what it looks like..
I am not going to sweat it. This company has won a ton of rewards for having excellent quality food.
I will still call them tomorrow.

I came home from Church, Artie was curled up on his pillow. I gave him his lactulose. He jumped down, did not want me to enjoy breakfast or read the newspaper!! He was after me for a brushing!!!
I had to give up! I did eat my breakfast, but did not finish my tea. I had to brush him. He ran to his cat tree when I asked him if he wanted to get brushed!! He loved it!
I tried to play with him with DA Mouse.. just a few jumps. Artie is really lazy. He is alert, watches the mouse, lies down on his stomach with front paws out. He will only reach for it, if the mouse is in front of him!!!! LAZY!!
I gave up, trying to play... Instead he got his nails clipped!!!! HA HA...
He ate 1/3 of a can during the night, and 1/6 of a can this morning. He is sleeping in his tent..
