My cat is balding just under his ears near his eyes, he is 7 or 8 (he was a stray when we found him so we don’t know his exact age) healthy and he spends 75% of his time outside, and a lot of that time is spent on our foosball table which he sleeps on.
Keywords: Balding around the ears

I’m going to guess he’s scratching the fur off because of earmites or fleas.

He could be getting ring worm. You should take him to the vet ASAP!
He can die from it!

I hope your kitty cat has been seen by a vet, or some of the over-the-counter suggestions posted here worked. You were correct in assuming something was wrong. The reason I am writing you is to thank you for adopting this ’stray’–what a loving home this cat has!
