I think a lot of it is due to the situation here at home = stress.

Husband died and her two cat friends recently died as well.

Its just Missy and me and no one else these days.

Missy is quite healthy and active for a nine year old cat.

I think I have this figured out finally!

They can test her to see if she is allergic to sisal it seems.

One of the signs is bald patches on the legs it seems.

Sisal be gone!

>>Bald patches on a cat's legs can be caused by a number of possible reasons, including allergies, fleas, infections, or stress

She is a very well-cared for indoor cat. She has no fleas, etc.

Stress, definitely!

Allergy to sisal is what I think.
