Charlie is really stressed. Ive taken him out there twice today, hes weed, scratched, eaten grass, paced up and down his new territory, weve already had the neighbours (friendly not nasty) kitty have a sniff around but while we werent in there. For ages hes been licking bit of fur off, and getting little patches. He already been to the vet last year for it, we think it's stress related. He got a new one this morning on his tail, and i put the red stuff on there, it has no taste its just to keep the area clean, he licks it off. If i see him licking i try to stop him, hes got a few patches now, but they all seem to be on the hind legs, lower back (base of tail) etc. Hes got a new flea collar, we gave him the treatment on the back of the neck. I brush him, comb him, give him love. Hes been very different since Jazzy passed and i didnt even think it would affect him that much because they didnt exactly have a loving relationship.
I dont know what to do. When i sat with him both inside and outside the enclosure, he did his thing, but after about 15 mins wanted out. Its really windy today and he doesnt like the noises. Once hes inside he meows to go out. I know he wants to run around the neighbourhood, and its hard to keep him in but i know its for the best. I let him sit in the enclosure by himself while i sat out to give him space, and also went in with him to reassure him.
Could it be Jazzys death? It will be three weeks tomorrow. Im doing everything i can, he sleeping in my room at night again like he was just before he got injured. Apart from the patches and meowing, he is perfectly healthy, hes eating properly as he doesnt have a second bowl of food to sneak into. I give him lots of cuddles and love. Atm he is on the blanket content and grooming.
I'm so confused.
