13 year old, male, neutered.
Her cat began to pull out his own hair in clumps last summer, and they treated for fleas and other parasites. He stopped on his own, when the weather cooled down. He's been checked by a vet, and has gotten the all clear. There is no apparent reason (no move, no new cat...nothing along those lines) for this stress behavior, so I told her to try some Feliway room diffuser.
But is there anything else I can tell her? She's so worried. He's a very nice, mellow cat, and it seems to only happen in the summer. Just now started doing it again, when it got hot. I was thinking about Tea Tree Oil, but am not sure about it. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
