Cat strange pounce forward, cleaning and skin twitch

Post by Kacy-T1 »

Hello,
Has anyone seen their cat experience when their ok most of the day then suddenly start frantically cleaning themselves, skin on their back twitches and pounces forward on her front paws and get a bit skittish.

First time my cat started this was Christmas 2019 on and off for nearly a week and had used VetUk spot on (have used frontline plus to alternate) but since April this year I started to put my 13 year old female cat on a VetIQ flea and tick natural repellent tablet, given daily with her food.
Recently she struggled to eat due to bad teeth, so she’s misses nearly a week so had to order some from online store and received Fipnil Plus spot on as ones I ordered probably out of stock. Gave her this two weeks ago and my husband believes it’s a reaction she getting from the chemicals because today she has been fine till this afternoon she started frantically cleaning etc.

Just wondering anybody else’s cat had this odd occasional behaviour?
Ok thanks! :roll:
