I just joined a little while ago, but I've already found some extremely helpful feedback. I read a couple of posts that talk about their cat loosing his/her fur. My poor baby is doing the same thing. He's a year old black cat. He's gorgeous, healthy and happy, but he's loosing his fur in spots and is constantly scratching and grooming. I can't really afford to take him to the vet right now, but from what I've read, he could be allergic to his food. I only feed him dry food with an occasional treat of canned. I'm going to change his food today and get him in to see the vet ASAP to make sure. I like this site a lot. Thanks!
