Hi my daughters 9 month old kitten was in a cattery while she was on holiday for 10 days . She got the cat back on Friday and we only noticed today the bald patch on her leg . Not sure it it has been caused by excessive licking due to stress or could it be fleas . She's an indoor cat .

A wee pic of pumpkin , wondering if we should just take her to the vet in the morning to be on the safe side .

Can't hurt to speak to the vet

What a very pretty cat.

I'd take her to a vet. She's a very pretty girl.

Could be ringworm op. But vet will tell you for sure.

Thank you she is a beautiful girl and very affectionate

I'd take her to the vet, ringworm is contagious to humans and could have been caught from the cattery. Even if not, it looks sore and I'm sure vet will be able to tell you what it is.

The picture makes it look sore but it's not and the skin isn't broken or scabby
