I would be very interested in that too.  My Phelix has a half-bald belly..and his back legs are little granny legs because he has chewed the hair off of them.  I've had him tested for ringworm and every skin disease known.  I've tried moisturizing washes for cats, Rescue Remedy cream...everything.  We even did immunoRegulin to build up his system.  Nothing has worked.  The vet thinks it is allergies.  Someone on this list, however, recommended the book "The Cat Who Cried for Help" - and after reading that I'm wondering if it isn't a form of OCD.

I've heard they can be effective when added to their water dishes too.  The nice thing about flower essences is there is no adverse side effects, according to the research I've done so far, they are completely safe.  I ordered it and another one called "Relationship" from Earth Spirits,

I started looking into a fe that might help with Starman's itch.  I suspect he has some sort of allergy that is making him crazy.  Phaewryn, if I find something that works for Star, I'll let you know for your little half bald baby.

I really appreciate the tip - I'll look for it.  I'm a believer in the Bach Flower Essences (Rescue Remedy) - and I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't tried it myself.  It's like liquid valium for Phelix.  Trouble with the flower remedies though is that it's hard to get them into a kitty who has totally gone insane.  I try to put it in the water and I've heard you can apply behind the ears.  The Feliway does seems to be making a difference - and I'm very glad it came before the neighborhood turns into a 4th of July artillery zone.

Do try the Australian Bush Flower Essence "Emergency" too.  I used it on Zelda, my JR x because she's deathly afraid of the darn fireworks.  I couldn't believe it when she fell asleep on the couch during the worst of it tonight.  She even went outside under her own power to go potty later, unheard of for her during fireworks season.  I wish I had known that it was going to be this effective sooner, I'd have ordered as much as I could afford to donate to the local shelter.
