Anita,
I had a cat who was a little on the crazy side. She was tortured by my
other cats. I had to keep her separated most of time. Anyway, when the
others would really start to pick on her she would start *pulling* out her
fur. She would have several bald spots all over her body. My vet said it
was neurologic. He gave her a shot of prednisone and said "isolate her".
So, we did and she would get better. I don't know, cats are strange
sometimes.
