One of my community cats, who is probably about 5-6 years old, suddenly has some hair loss and scabbing under her tail and near her anus and upper legs. I thought maybe it’s an anal sac issue but the anus itself, though inflamed from licking, doesn’t look swollen like the examples I’ve seen in photos online.
There’s no other hair loss other than this area. Though it looks bad she doesn’t otherwise seem that bothered or itchy or in pain. She was just now sunning herself as usual and grooming all areas of her body as normal and not focused on the hair loss areas.
Will make a vet appointment (if I can get her there; she is semi-feral). But any guesses what could be afflicting her bottom?
