The moon does not sleep, you do not sleep......
I don’t know if you have noticed that the hair is sparse in the area from above the cat’s eyes to below the ears. Over time, there is even a tendency to be bald.
Is it because I stayed up late to do bad things too often and turned into a "bald" baby?
What causes cats to bald?
Many shit shovel officers don’t understand. Cat owners don’t need to endorse exams or be social animals. They eat, drink, sleep and sleep every day. Is it possible that the cat owner is sick if he is bald?
First of all, you don't need to worry too much about the shoveling officer. Generally, shorthair cats kept at home will basically have "balding" phenomenon, and the darker the cat, the more obvious the bald phenomenon, and the black cat is the most obvious.
Once the cat in the house is found to be bald, the shit scavengers can carefully observe where the cat is bald to see if there are skin symptoms. If not, it means that baldness is normal.
Generally, this acceptable level of hair thinning is actually normal, because it contains the secret of smell glands.
The more bald the cat owner, the more he loves you
Cats and dogs are also very sensitive to smells. There are many parts of their bodies with glands. Body, including around the mouth, pads and ears. Therefore, the hair in front of the cat’s ears is sparser than elsewhere because of the secretion of odor, but this odor is hard to detect by humans.
Does your cat usually rub your head against you? This is not acting like a baby, but in this way, it leaves its smell on you.
Think about it again, the cat rubs your head against your part, is it just the bald spot? Because there are its glands here.
Although cats rubbing against people are the performance of leaving a smell, but using glands to leave their own unique taste, marking the shoveling officer with the sign of "oneself", is it love to shovel shit The performance of officials.
For cats, the stronger the smell on your body, the more proof they love you.
So the more the cat rubs you, the more bald it will be. In other words, the more a cat loves you, the more likely it is to be bald.
This kind of "alopecia" must be prevented
But be careful, the above-mentioned normal phenomenon also has certain conditions, if The cat’s ears and even the face and head have begun to show obvious hair loss, so it cannot be ruled out that the cat is suffering from alopecia.
Regarding this alopecia, there are also two situations, one is a congenital genetic disease, and the other is an acquired cause. The following is an introduction.
The hair loss caused by genetic factors is likely to be caused by genetic mutations, and the hair loss caused by this situation will not cause inflammation in the part of the loss, and will not affect the cat’s health and normality life.
There are several breeds of cats that are more prone to this genetic alopecia, such as Siamese cats, Berman cats, Burmese cats and so on. And because of congenital hair loss, there is no effective way to prevent hair loss.
And acquired alopecia can also be quickly distinguished. In general, cats will frequently scratch and lick due to the itching of the affected area. There are three main reasons for this situation:

Ear mites are also highly contagious and will spread to other cats and even humans. Therefore, it is recommended that the shoveling officer clean the ear canal of the cat regularly to ensure that the ear is dryDry and clean, ear mites are prone to recurrence. In addition to drug treatment, normal care and prevention are essential.
2. Fleas
Fleas are also a common skin disease in cats. Fleas stay on the cat and their saliva will cause itching. Frequent scratching of the cat will cause hair loss, and the hair on the head and ears will become more severe. Easy to become bald.
