Over the last couple of months my male cat has washed parts of his lower body nearly bare of fur.?

We moved house 6mths ago and he has a lot more garden to play in. Also I have been told he may be stressed with the move and more cats in the area. He is quite happy and fit but the vet and ourselves can find no reason for this.Over the last couple of months my male cat has washed parts of his lower body nearly bare of fur.?
typically a behavioral issue. it's called 'barbering'


it can be treated medically by a VeterinarianOver the last couple of months my male cat has washed parts of his lower body nearly bare of fur.?
i have heard of Cats doing this it is like an OCD thing or something when they get nervous. call your vet just to make sure there is nothing you can do to make him stop. im sure he will live you will just have a naked cat.
I also think that he is stressed out and not used to the new environment. My cat on the other hand, readjusts easily and actually investigates whenever I bring him home to my parents' house.





The link below offer a way to help him readjust. Good luck!
It could have mange they get it from outside and other animals its not that hard to cure.
