Hello, and thanks for your question about Mickey. Mickey has suffered a severe injury and needs to be seen immediately by a veterinarian. In the picture, I suspect I'm seeing devitalized skin on his lateral abdomen, meaning the injury caused the skin in that area to die, which is causing it to slowly necrose and fall off. Mickey is suffering, and will likely die very painfully unless he is given prompt medical attention.
