I was gone over the weekend for 2 days total. When I came home I noticed on both sides of my kitten's mouth he had little areas of fur that were gone.

The closest thing I can find to it is ring worm. However.. He does fight quite a bit with my older female cat. The left side photo has what looks to be scratch marks when zoomed in on.

My thought process initially is to say he lost a fight but it's in similar locations and sizes on opposite sides of the face.


Any thoughts?

Welcome to TCS! :wave3: I'm glad you joined the forum and came here for support. Ouch, the right side looks like he may have a problem or discomfort. Just out of curiosity, when you were gone over the weekend for two days, did someone look after the cats or check on them for you? If so, did they notice any scuffles between the two cats?

Here is an Article that may be helpful to you:

I would suggest checking with your vet and, if possible, sending them a pic of both sides of your cat's face. Best of luck, please keep us posted on your progress. :alright:
