Hi! I just joined the site today and I already have something a little odd.
My cat eats my hair. I'm not talking she grooms me and will on ocassion get a strand of my long hair in her mouth. She will eat the hair off my hair brush and she will dig in the waste basket to find the hair I throw away and she will eat that.
I catch her sometimes, but there are time I don't, and weeks later, she ends up being sick for 4 days from it. It causes her to vomit and gives her diarrhea, and then it *pardon the pun* passes and she's back to normal.
I asked the vet about it and she wasn't that alarmed about it, however, I am alarmed. I want her to stop doing this.
Has this happened to anyone here and if so, was there anything you did to stop it?
