    Possible skin issue

    Hi! I have a new boy – got him a couple weeks ago – and he has strange spots on him. He had them when he arrived but it might be spreading. It's hard to tell. He doesn't itch or lick at it. I read that dark kittens get this, but I'm now thinking it could be more. Thoughts?

    Red bump rash?

    Noticed this on our Luna. At first I thought it was a food stain at quick glance. She is not in pain nor does she pick, scratch or lick it. It’s allergy season here in Phoenix AZ and scorpions are also starting to appear. Should I be worried? Thank you!
