Pawlease stop scratching! 🐾
If your dog or cat can’t stop licking, chewing, or overgrooming — it’s not just a "bad habit".
❗️ Sometimes it’s fleas (yes, even if you can’t see them!)
🍗 Sometimes it’s food
🌿 Sometimes it’s something in the air
(Or even behavioural reasons! - but more on that in another post)
The tricky part? They can look 👀 the same on the outside!
This post walks you through what itching looks like and the main reasons behind the itch - and in the following posts, we’ll sniff 🐽 out the details on food allergies and environmental allergies (aka atopy).
📌 Save this post to revisit later!
Every pet deserves to feel comfy in their own skin 💕
