A little over a month ago I noticed that Cj had a spot on his leg that I had never felt before. It was a long line, fairly straight about 3.5 inches long. It felt like a scar and I thought that was part of the reason he walks funny. (he prances standing on the end 1/3 of his feet kinda with his kinked tail held over him almost touching his head. He was abused, I figure it was broken a few times.) I thought well maybe he got attacked by a dog or got a cut somehow and had to have it sewn up. It didnt feel weird or anything, I just could not believe I hadnt noticed it before. I told my mom (who is an Registered Nurse) and she said that it made sense. Then a couple of weeks later (this past Sat. ) I asked her to feel of it and she said it felt like swollen glands (lymph is what she said) they were small about the size of bb's still in a fairly straight line going up his back leg. Now 3 days later it is bald back there and it looks like an old wound (no scabs or oozing) trying to heal (I just noticed it today as he wont let me look or touch his legs back there, I figured that if he was hurt back there before he was wary of me touching it... now i dunno). I am bothered that it went that bald that quickly, and tomorrow I am going to schedule a vet appt for him for friday. I was just wondering if any of y'all had any idea what it could be or anything I could do until friday? Thanks.
He is a year old this month very active, inside only, not declawed, current on all his shots. He was dewormed about 4 months ago, his litter is pa-purr fully changed once a week. He had a respitory infection when I got him but he has since been cleared by the vet (it was in jan.) he weighs about 8.5 pounds.
