Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Female | spayed | 2 years old | 11 lbs
Hello! I have a question about my cat. I have been staying with my boyfriend during all of this sickness stuff and my roommates have been watching my cats for me. I came by today to check on them and noticed my black cat has a huge bald spot on her head. She has no bleeding or scratches, it just oddly looks like she was shaved or something which is confusing but no one knows what happened. She is indoor/outdoor so maybe a cat fight but I just wanted to check anyways. Thank you for your help.

It is probably from an injury. I would not be overly worried about it right now since it is just the hair missing and no wound. Just monitor him for any swelling in the area or any symptoms of being sick. Hope this helps. Best wishes!
