Why is my cat losing weight even though he's eating normally?

Question

Hello our cat Felix is eating normally but he is losing weight near his bottom area, what does this mean? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered

Weight loss coupled with a normal or increased appetite can be a sign of diabetes or hyperthyroidism, to name a couple of possibilities. I recommend getting Felix seen by your vet as soon as possible for an exam and labwork to determine the reason for his weight loss and get him started on treatment.
