Hello and while there is no specific question here, let's talk about this. Scabs signify that at least the top layer of skin has been broken or torn and it is a symptom; there can be many different reasons behind it. A common one is fleas; fleas bite, which cause a local inflammatory response and considerable itching, which leads to scratching, which leads to deeper sores and sometimes local infection in the skin. In this instance, appropriate flea treatment (speak to your vet or phramacyst directly) would be a good idea and in some situations, vets will also treat the wound and / or the itch.
