White spot on female panther

Hello, I have noticed a white spot on my female panther's belly. I noticed it first a few weeks ago, and it has stayed the same since. I know its not a burn because I have seen burns and its definatly not it. All it is is a discolored patch with no bumps, wounds, or peeling skin. She is very healthy, eats and drinks normally, and is on a normal supplement schedule. My only worry is if it could be a fungal infection or skin disease of some sort.
She is also gravid, which would explain her dark colors in the photo. (The spot has nothing to do with her being gravid as I saw it before we bred her)

In other animals I have seen it was MRSA. I am not sure if chams can contract it. If it is MRSA, the white spot will collapse after the infection drains, leaving a giant hole. Which will definitely require a vet. But it doesn't seem to be softening. Hard to tell from that pic.
 
ok, thanks for replying, hopefully thats not it.. Here are some clearer pictures to help. Thanks
