In the past I have noticed that Valentine from time to time would have teensy bald patches on her face. She is a mini rex, so has short fur anyway, but I always put this down to vigorous grooming and the hair always grew back really quickly. Vets have always said that she is healthy (when she has been for routine things - vaccs/spay etc) so I didn't worry too much.
Since she was brought indoors approx 2 weeks ago she has been moulting a lot since then. So I wasn't overly surprised when I noticed a few days ago that she had sllight bald patches in front of her ears... however this morning they are a lot bigger
I am not sure if this is a normal part of the moult process (and if so, how long the moult is likely to last). I have read that mini rexes tend to go through fairly crazy moulting processes :? Otherwise, is there are a chance that this is a symptom of something more sinister (mites perhaps?)
I have taken a couple of photos this morning (had to keep her still with food :roll and would really appreciate any advice on whether this looks normal or not?! I was fairly shocked when I saw it, and immediately thought... back to the vets, but not sure if this is necessary? (Bun seems fine in herself)
Think the white in this one looks a little more extreme due to the flash
