SOCKS....The Latest on the "biting" cat

Well, if anyone remembers the story, SOCKS bits his paws and I have tried a wide variety of things. Well, I have been giving him the Zyrtec (5 mg) and he is eating it inside a pill pocket.

 

Which is a shock.

 

It has not been one week yet, but we will see.  I am watching carefully.

 

He seems to be biting less but I don't know if it is my MIND, wanting results.  I am going to watch via pictures of his paws.  Sometimes you want success so bad.

 

I just don't want him to be bitting himself, he might not mind but I don't think it is healthy.

 

I give him the pill at night as that is when the bitting seems to really flare up when I am sleeping.  The pill does make him drowzy so I am sleeping better myself.

 

Well, thanks everyone for your positive words and ideas.

 

Also, we are using a new litter, not 100% yet but mixing a little at a time until a half a box of the new litter then little steps forward.
