I'm a college student so she lives with my parents and my mother hasn't noticed anything, so i don't know how long this has been happening. She seems to be fine otherwise. Shes not moaning or meowing anymore than normal. but i did look down between her legs and theres a small balding patch with small sores and a small scratch, i was thinkin maybe she's been licking there alot. I'm really concerned for my cat. i don't want to take her to the vet until i'm sure that theres something wrong with her, because we can't afford it, if she turns out to be fine. any advice or concerns THANKS!- Chelsea!

You already know something is wrong, and if you've read the first post in this thread you should know that litterbox troubles left untreated can cause DEATH. Get this cat to the vet ASAP!!!!! I'd imagine your cat is licking because she's in PAIN.

A message board is NOT the place to be asking about serious medical questions concerning your pet , your first step should have been to CALL THE VET at least, they are in a position to better be able to help you, and how much could a simple thing as a phone call to your vet for advice possibly cost?
