Hi! My cat has been overgrooming for about a year. We have done blood work, xrays, a skin scrapping test, parasite treatments, two food trials; tried steroids, NSAIDs, amitriptyline, gabapentin and atopica. Only the steroids seemed to have any impact but she starts overgrooming right after she goes off them and she can’t be on them long term. My vet consulted a dermatologist and she has no other suggestions. My vet thinks it’s behavioural but I don’t see how that explains the steroids working. At this point, we can try more anxiety medication I guess but that’s all anyone’s got. Any other suggestions?
