Not sure if I should be concerned or not.. I just find it.. strange.
On occasion, once a week or every other week, I find Monet attacking his own tail. I am not sure if he's playing or his tail is annoying him. He'd flip, twist and roll over to get his tail, then he'd grab it, bite, then lick his tail.. and repeat. after about 5 minutes of this, he's all calm and satisfied. And I only see him do this on my bed.
I looked at his tail and it looks fine. no scabs, bald patches or anything. Indoor only, so no fleas or other bugs (but it'd be all over his body, not just his tail?)
I guess I am paranoid because I know there's some cats that has the "twitches" and they attack themselves to stop the twitches.. which is normally on their backs.
Any ideas if he's just playing or something else? My other cat never does this.
