Talking losing fur

Samantha, almost called you Sammi, my daughters name is Samantha and we call her sammi. *Lol*

Is your cat licking the fur off? my Dasher, Lestat who will be 7 this year, took to licking the fur off his stomach and legs. I was beside myself and took him to the vets admist the protesting howls fromt eh back seat of the car. the Vet said he was stressed and he was licking to relieve his anxiety. he also said that he was a seasonal licker. *Lol* how funny is that? he would lick his stomach almost completely bald in the summer. he's a fluffy cat but not a longhair. the vet had suggested kitty prozac but I said no! it turne dout to be a dominnance thing, we had gotten a new kitten, Louis, who is also male so there was some issues about who was king of the castle. Lestat has grown out of his licking faze, thank goodness!! the vet said it would be awhile before he went back to normal and didn't lick repeatedly out of stress and he was right, as soon as Louis got out of his kitten pounce on anything that moves stage, lestat stopped licking and his fur grew back beautiful and full.
