My cat has a hairless patch on her stomach that is red and has some yellowish dry spots. What could this be?

This is a little spot of wet dermatitis, a superficial infection of the skin. It will usually settle if you can stop her licking at it and bathe it daily with hibi scrub. If it starts to spread or worsen you will need to go to the vet for medication.
