    I don't know what could be happening with him. My cats do that when I pet them down their backs -
    hope you can figger it out and he feels better soon.
    *hugs and prayers*

    Poor Brodie. I hope it's nothing serious. If the only thing that is different is the prednisone then maybe he is having a reaction to it. I think you should call the vet asap about this. Please keep us updated about him.

    Upon further investigation - reading & research - last night on the internet, I REALIZED (duh) that his twitching was from his skin allergy. He is having a flareup - which the vet & I discussed him having. His itchy skin is making him dig & twitch & be uncomfortable.

    So I gave him a pred ... the dosage is Every 2 days or as needed for flareups, so I guess this is a flareup. I guess until this is over, I will give him one every day as he acts like this. But I'm still gonna call the vet monday morning to confirm that I'm doing this right. Poor guy. He's just itchy!

    Ohh Poor baby! That doesn't sound fun - being all twitchy and itchy. I hope it passes soon.
