My cat will randomly jump up and spaz out like something just bit her on the butt, its driving her insane - any ideas? Doesnt seem like she has fleas anymore, but she had them pretty bad over the summer.

I talked to my vet about something similar last week. He thought it might be flea bites, or an allergy to fleas, or it could be blocked anal glands. He expressed the glands, but they didn't seem to be too bad. I use drevoloution on him, and he hasn't done in since the vet visit. I'm continuing to watch him.

I'd be wondering if she still had a few fleas, too.. Her skin could be sensitive from having them earlier, and that would make even one or two more bothersome to her..

There's also the possiblity of worms too, if she's licking at her butt and not her back/tail base.
Was she wormed after you got rid of the fleas?
