My cat Leo has been acting strange since Sunday: racing around, frenetically cleaning himself, "bristling" his fur, panting, hiding, etc.
I took him to the vet Monday. He doesn't have fleas, ear mites, etc. or anything else they could find wrong. They suspected it was in response to something he saw/heard/smelled outside. Just in case, they gave him an allergy shot as well.
(See http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=125299 for my original thread about this issue.)
Fast forward 2 days- he's still exhibiting the same behaviors, but a little less frequently. I'm wondering if he's allergic to something, because he's shaking his head like he doesn't like the taste after he licks himself, and he's "ruffling" his fur a lot.
I went on Petsmart's website to see what kind of allergy or oatmeal shampoos they have, but couldn't find any that specified they were for cats (some said "dogs only"). I've put a call in to the vet to get their input, but am wondering if anyone here knows of an allergy or oatmeal shampoo I can use on him.
Thanks!
