I have had my kitten for about 5 weeks now, she is a five month old spayed female, is current on her vaccines, and negative for Feline Leukemia. About a week ago she developed a sore on her neck where the hair fell off and exposed a scab. My vetrinarian thought it was from another cat biting her, but she has not been around any other cats since i have had her. She prescribed tritop twice a day. The scab fell off about a day later, and exposed raw skin. I took her back to the vet who thinks it is some sort of skin disorder but didnt tell me what. She gave her a steroid shot of some kind, and said for me to bring her back in 4 days. Tommorow is her appointment for recheck, and I have found another area develop just above the original spot. I can see redness and I feel a lump. Has anyone any idea what this might be? (also, her ringworm test wont be conclusive for ten days, but its been 4 days and there has been no growth so far)

The blacklight test was done, did not show signs of ringworm. the actual fungal test is still inconclusive. Also, the cat does not wear a collar.
