Indoor. My only guess is I let his back claws get too long and he scratched it too hard with the back legs. It doesn't look irritated. It looks like perfect skin in the area he pulled out the hair.

My thought at the moment is some sort of anxiety induced scratching -- combined with too long back nails.
