It could also be a reaction to the grass if your Mom has different grass than you. We found out when we moved here that Chester's allergic to Bermuda grass. He's fine with St Augustine, so we changed the entire backyard 2 years ago! Usually a skin manifestation is from contact (grass, shrubs) or food. Pollen usually makes them sneeze & have watery eyes, just like us. Has she eaten any different foods?

Poor, pitiful baby. Hope you feel better soon. Chester says he understands the foot licking. He gets his pills in some peanut butter.
