My neighbor's outdoor Florida cat is losing fur on hind legs, moving to stomach area. Cat was treated with frontline about 2 wks ago, but problem seems to be a bit worse. He appears otherwise in good health.

Suggestions?

Could be many things. Allergies (yes, they can come on at any age at any time), a metabollic disorder, parasite, but I'd start with blood work to check the health of the liver and kidneys and a full thyroid work up
