Hyper Behavior In A Cat
by Catherine

QUESTION
This morning my cat came in from outside and is very hyper. He was panting heavily and does not seem to be able to sit still. His skin is twitching and he keeps licking hinself like he is trying to get rid of something. I used frontline on him last week and I do not see any indication of fleas. He also had his shots last week. It seems like something is crawling around inside of him and he's trying to get at it.
The most likely thing is fleas even though he was just treated. However, it could be that something stung him or bit him. It could be that something got on his fur and he is trying to get it off. Many possibilities, but fleas are always at the head of the list.
