My Manx Cat is chewing himself He actually pulled his skin off of his back leg..
He does not have fleas and we tried a new food thinking it was a allergie to his diet and he also gets 2 fish oil capsules a day for dry skin does anybody have any suggestions any Ideas will help hopefully

Dear Grierjeffrey,

We have 2 cats that have done this and while ours were attributed to fleas, they also have very dry skin - flakey, etc. We got Hill's Sensitive Skin food and they aren't biting anymore. Hope this helps.
