Question Cat came home with a shaved patch?

Funny question but I though I would see if anyone has seen this before.

My friend has just posted on facebook that her cat has come home from her afternoon poddle with a shaved patch.



Has anyone seen or heard of this before.....why could this have happened

As you can imagine she is confused and a little concerned.

Re: Cat came home with a shaved patch?

She believes shaved (she is a hairdresser so I would assume that she's checked to see if it's pulled out at the root).

Looking at the photo it's a large and pretty angular patch to have been pulled out - I could be wrong though.

Re: Cat came home with a shaved patch?

Very odd that it's in the general area that a spay would be done..

My only very far fetched idea is that someone could have shaved her to see if she was spayed (by finding a scar) in order to ascertain if she was owned or a stray..

As I said, I can't actually imagine that happening though.. Very odd

Re: Cat came home with a shaved patch?

that looks like my cat hahaha but my cat hasn't been shaved

very strange I don't think I would let the cat out for a bit though if that happened because obviously someone has picked it up and taken it somewhere for them to have shaved it :/

the above about the checking to see if it is spayed does sound like the most likely reason though

Re: Cat came home with a shaved patch?

That is very strange. I would think about reporting it just in case that has been other incidents in the area. But I would not be letting her back out for a while. Poor little girl must have been scared.
