Thread: Help! My cat is losing her hair!

    Excessive licking

    These conditions are usually diet-related.

    In short, a cat should NEVER be fed a KIBBLE DIET! If you want to avoid many health problems, feed a raw meat diet.

    It would be best to seek medical advice if you have problems on your beloved pets. Go to your vet. Dont wait til its too late.
    same as to yourselves = go to your respective physicians

    Oscar was over-grooming in spots, inside back legs and lower tummy(and under his 'armpits' ). He had a UTI, which took a month to treat, and now is on two bits of Feliway per day, to ease his stress.

    He was wild for the first 2 1/2 years of his life, and though he is about 4 1/2 now and a total sucky boy, the vet feels he might still be a bit high-strung.

    Waiting for fur to grow back...hard to spray in his 'favourite place' when he is everywhere!

    Good luck with your baby.

    Cat Losing hair

    The felway diffuser is excellent. We have a cat who we didnt realise was getting stressed when we rehomed kittens. She licked her belly and her hind legs bare. I plugged in 2 diffusers one upstairs, the other down and it worked. I have now removed them but now and again when the young ones must get her down, hair starts disappearing so we plug them in again for a short period of time. Well worth the money.

    I logged onto this forum as my 10 year old rehomed cat has suddenly got bald patches on her ears. Previiously she had a bald ring round her neck which the vet said was due to a collar - not sure. She has been quite poorly so dont know if the hair loss on her ears is rlated - back to the vets next week so will ask then. I will post my findings.
