topic Cat w/ hair loss - only on ears...thanks for any thoughts! in Community Chat https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Cat-w-hair-loss-only-on-ears-thanks-for-any-thoughts/m-p/41744#M18197 <P>I don't generally visit this board but am really hoping that someone will have some thoughts here. My 8 year old cat has developed some moderate hair loss - but only on her ears...not total hair loss but a general thinning that has become quite significant. She also seems to scratch at her ears quite often too. I've taken her to the vet and they did a blood test but it came back negative for any issues that he suspected. </P> <P>After some digging around on the web, I've seen that food allergies can manifest in odd symptoms such as this. So...I've changed her food to a high quality organic/grain free formula from Canada. She's been on this food for about a month now - but I'm not seeing any improvement. Perhaps, it is just too soon...</P> <P>THANKS in advance for any thoughts / suggestions...</P> Sat, 19 Mar 2011 22:39:07 GMT bjm67 2011-03-19T22:39:07Z Cat w/ hair loss - only on ears...thanks for any thoughts! https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Cat-w-hair-loss-only-on-ears-thanks-for-any-thoughts/m-p/41744#M18197 <P>I don't generally visit this board but am really hoping that someone will have some thoughts here.
