Question by Yay there’s a Starbucks!: Why does my cat have bald spots over his eyes?
He is not completely bald there, but he had very little bit of fur just in those spots. Othere then that he’s a fur ball!

Is it perhaps a black cat and can you see his (light) skin better in that area? That would be normal.

Question by Anastasia: Why do some cats have bald spots above their eyes?
I’ve noticed that some cats have these and some don’t. My kitten sally has long fur and very prominent “bald spots”. I was thinking that’s where some of their scent glands are, but then why do some cats have them and some don’t?

Actually… they *all* do to some degree or another. That’s just the way they are made!

Question by oliver t: How to treat a dog with hair loss around the eyes and green gunk infection?
Living in Vietnam & finding it hard to get good vetinary advice.

Recently had a 3-4 month old puppy which spent lots of time with my friends dog (same age). My dog became ill starting with: eye infection, green gunk in eyes & hair loss around eyes, then became lethargic and lost her appetite.

At this point I took her to the animal doctor. After 3 days of injections she began frothing at the mouth. After 4 more days of intermitent, but increasingly common frothing bouts, i gave the dog to the animal doctor for 2 days observation. After this she determined the dog to be crazy & advised she be put down.

Unfortunately, testing for rabies wasn’t an option. I’m not totally convinced that it was rabies: she wasn’t aggresive till the fourth day of frothing & was still drinking small amounts of water till the end.

My friends dog which used to socialise with my dog is now showing similar symptoms with hair loss around the eyes & green gunk and mild lethargy. What to do?

Sounds like everything you tried, failed.

What do you think? Answer below!

She’s a little over a year and her eating habits haven’t changed at all. She doesn’t have fleas and doesn’t seem to have a rash because she doesn’t scratch any more than a healthy dog would. I’m just concerned it is a little more serious than a few harmless bald spots.

He is not completely bald there, but he had very little bit of fur just in those spots. Othere then that he’s a fur ball!
