Prozac
One of my cats is definitely insane. I won't bore you with all we've
been through to come to that conclusion, but trust me when I say, he's crazy. He's been on Prozac for two months and it's been great! I was concerned how it would affect him, but he seems really happy and very calm, instead of hyper and paranoid, doesn't spray anymore, and we all get a good night's sleep now. My only concern is that he seems to have lost any interest in taking care of himself. He's DSH so there's no grooming usually, but now I'm combing him every few days because of all the dead hair, he used to be really meticulous. I'm just wondering if anyone else had this problem. Thanks! Sue |

No, I still brush my hair regularly, but I would say, pick your battles. If he is not washing his nether regions you can take a swipe with a baby wipe every now and then. The worst he will do is give you a dirty look if your's quick. |

Prozac
I had a cat that was taking prozac off and on for about 4 years. I never
had a problem with him grooming himself. You may want to ask your vet about this. S. -- **Visit me and my cats at http://www.island-cats.com/ ** --- wrote in message ...

I'd go with just a warm wet washcloth - I don't know for sure, but baby wipes may have some additive that wouldn't be good for cats to lick off of themselves (I know, I'm a paranoid cat mommy! ;) Hugs, CatNipped |

They do make pet wipes. You can buy them at the pet store. But a warm wet
washcloth would work just as well...and cheaper. S. -- **Visit me and my cats at http://www.island-cats.com/ ** --- "cybercat" wrote in message ...
