Why would someone pull out their hair?

Answer 1

You might pull your hair out because you get stressed out too much. Maybe you should relax and just CHILL! You know what I'm saying. It can also be a form of self mutliation like some people scratch or cut themselves on purpose. It is a sign of stress and a could be a partial break-down. The person wants to feel like they are alive because they have become void of feeling.

Answer 2

There are many reasons why a cat pulls out their fur. It could be due to fleas, an allergy to food or something in the environment (strong chemicals in bleaches/cleaners/laundry detergents can cause this), stress or an underlying health problem. It can even be that, if a long haired cat, the cat's hair is matted and the knots are pulling at its skin, causing great discomfort. It is advisable to go to the vet as they can help narrow down the possibilities and check for fleas and test for Allergies.

In the meantime, adding a little Salmon Oil or Evening Primrose Oil to the cat's food might help. Both these supplements are full of essential oils that promotes healthy skin and fur.
