My sister has had one of her toms for 8 years and only a couple of years ago adopted a stray that had been hanging around her house for a long time. She checked around and he didn't belong to anybody, so she took him to the vet who gave him a clean bill of health and she kept him. But a few days or so after she brought Peach into the house, her first tom, Romeo, started to lose the fur in patches on his face. She took him to the vet who examined him and said that Romeo was allergic to cats! Is this even really possible? He's been off and on prescribed meds (steroids) for it, and his fur will grow back when he's on them, but will lose it again when he's taken off of them.
Can cats be allergic to cats? Or is it more likely a virus of some kind that Peach carried?
