Cat Is Losing Hair in Chunks?

My cat is 16 years old and has dry brown stuff on his face, around the eyes, nose, and under his chin. When I wipe it off gently with a wet washcloth it comes off, but chunks of fur do as well. Any idea what's causing this?

He may have a parasite or some skin disease. I would consult a vet if I were you.

Cats get something often called cat acne. I have only ever seen it around the chin. Occasionally it is related to eating on plastic dishes.

Since it is in other places on your cats face I would see a Vet as soon as possible.
