Hello,
I am a new member to this list. I have a cat that has an allergic reaction to something, we just don't know what. She scratches around her head and neck area constantly. She scratches until her fur is gone and it starts to bleed. We are at the point where the vet says the next step is to draw blood and have it tested (at Greer Labs in New York) to determine what she is allergic to. Has anyone here ever had a cat with scratching that became bad enough to warrant an allergy test? If your answer is yes, what was the outcome of the test? Did you have to give your cat injections? Did it work at stopping the itching?
Thanks,
Sophie
