Bloke said to put the collar on from the vet, but that will drive him crazy.  pleaaaaaaaaase! |
Once a cat starts licking - they don't stop! If it stays moist & gets bigger -- either put the collar on, or take him to the vet to see why he is continuing to lick the area - is there something physically there irritating him, or is it a nervous tic now.
Sometimes cats are really dumb about hurting themselves!
