What can this weird rash near his eye be? These pictures were taken 1 day apart from each other. The one with my hand in it was today, the one without my hand was last night.

The skin near Chance’s eye does appear irritated. He could have a skin infection, allergies or even a skin parasite like Demodex mites. I would recommend making an appointment to see your veterinarian. They might recommend taking a sample to look for mites or they may go ahead and prescribe some medication.

This could be an infection secondary to allergies, or it could be related to mites or other parasites. I doubt this is related to a cat scratch. I'd recommend having your veterinarian examine Sasha - they may recommend a skin scrape to determine what treatment would be best.
