I am not sure what this is. It could be a bacterial infection, fungal infection, mites, allergies (food or fleas or environmental), or an inflammatory condition. I would recommend that you have your vet check Trinity out. The vet will do a thorough examination of all of her skin to check for other lesions. They may take a small sample for examination under a microscope. Then they can create an appropriate treatment plan for your beautiful kitty.
