Question
I have a two year old tabby. I got him neutered about a 5 months ago.I dont know if that has any thing to do with his hair loss. Atfirst I though he got in a fight but noew it has been a month and he has lost more.It is a big spot on his side.I wanted to ask first before I brought him to the vet

Answer
Hello Danielle,
Hair loss could be an allergy to something.  Maybe food, maybe enviornment.  The only sure way to know is to make the visit to the vet.  They can do a skin scraping to find out for sure.
Good luck,
Thank you for your inquiry.
