My cat recently had 3 ticks between his shoulder blades. The day after we removed them he had a little dry, scabby skin in the area, but we just thought it was from the tick wound and where we pulled out so hair whole pulling them off. Well, now he has a rather large patch of hair missing in that area and the skin there is rough and scabby. He loves to have it scratched with a plastic bristled brush and he is constantly rubbing against stuff to scratch it. I'm afraid it's mange, and I wanted to see if anyone had any opinions before I take him to the vet. I've included a fairly descent picture of the affected area I took with my phone. Like I said, I just would like some opinions besides my own, so all responses are appreciated.
