Marlo licking off her hair
I noticed Marlo was grooming a lot. She's pretty fat and has a lot of
places to groom, but I noticed that her belly was looking pretty pink, as in not much hair. And the inside of her back legs are looking bare. Obviously we need a trip to the vet. |

She's attacking Baby sometimes and I do make her stop that. But I'm leaning toward allergy. We haven't made it to the vet yet but I'm hoping for early next week. |

I'd lean toward an allergy too, but only because I noticed the same behavior in Persia (RB) when she was allergic to a specific medication. I've got a picture of her somewhere after the vet sent her home in an e-collar so she wouldn't keep licking. That was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Trust me when I say cats do not like having a cone around their head! LOL Jill |
