My 10 yr. old male cat constantly licks his skin and bites his fur. He has balding areas everywhere. The vets have given him a clean bill of health on his skin. They say it is stress related. He has always loved the brush, but now I don't brush him, for fear it may be too abrasive. I wonder if it is not stress but itchiness. His skin looks fine. No rashes, sores, fleas or anything. He is miserable. I try to occupy him, so he isn't bored but he is not always cooperative. Could it be his Royal Cainin Prescription dry food for urinary crystal prevention? He also gets a can of wet food a day and drinks plenty of water. Would a bath help and any suggestions for a dry food that will still keep his Ph levels good?
