He/She is nervous, stop whatever behavior is making him nervous, In my case it was my b/f and I arguing. I had to put her down. It could also be that he has fleas. Check with your vet.

The cat may be "pruning" the fur- not really ripping off the fur. If they are actually ripping off the fur (literally) visit your local vet.

How do you frontline your cat?

If you're talking about the single-use parasite remover/preventer capsules, you begin by breaking off the seal tab. You then part the cat's hair at the base of the skull on the backside of the neck and gently squeeze the liquid in the capsule in a line along the back of their neck, going no further than the beginning of the shoulderblades. This prevents the cat from licking the chemicals.

A related phenomenon is that the pupils of the eyes will enlarge if the back of the neck is stroked (for many folk anyway).
