Cats are peaceful and gentle animals, they love to sit and relax or just observe quietly on the side. Cats love to have a peaceful, and quiet place too, they prefer to have calm surroundings and household conveniences, like vacuum cleaners, or the high volume of the TV can easily disrupt their mood.

There are times that simple things can cause cats to be stressed like changes in their surroundings, a new pet, or even a very small change. These changes cause a cat to become stressed and start overgrooming. Overgrooming is when cats tend to become particularly obsessed with licking and cleaning a particular area until they have removed all the hair.

If your cat suddenly starts to groom more or there are patches of missing hair, make sure to look for the stressors that cause this change of behavior. You can also give them something to keep them busy.

Excessive hair loss or other skin and hair coat issues should be brought to the attention of your pet clinic in Crown Point, IN.
