Why is my cat itching?

Learn what causes itchy skin in cats and what to do about it.

Fleas and ticks

Fleas and ticks are common culprits when it comes to your cat’s itchiness. These blood-sucking bugs can stealthily latch onto your beloved pet and quickly reproduce. Some cats have hypersensitivity to flea saliva, so flea bites can lead to excessive scratching.

Allergies

Like humans, cats can have allergic reactions to foods, flea bites, medications, and environmental allergens such as pollen, dander, and dust. This can result in discomfort and itchiness, among other problems.

Mange

Mange is an inflammatory skin condition in cats caused by a variety of mites. The condition can cause extreme itchiness, hair loss, redness, scaling, and skin crusts. If left untreated, mange can quickly spread and infect other animals as well as humans so quick treatment is important.

Anxiety

In some cases, your cat’s scratching may be caused by a behavioral problem rather than a physical one. Compulsive scratching and biting at the skin due to stress or anxiety can create more serious skin problems for your cat in the long term.

Frequently asked questions

What is a visit with Dutch like?

When booking a video call with a vet, you'll be asked a few questions about your pet’s health issue. Depending on the issue, you may also be asked to fill out a longer questionnaire about their symptoms and share photographs of them so our veterinarians can better understand what’s going on. You’ll then pick an appointment time that works best for you.

During your video call, one of our licensed veterinarians will talk to you about the symptoms your pet is experiencing, ask you questions, review your pet’s medical history if you’ve provided it, and answer any questions you have. The vet will ask to see your pet and their environment. And they may ask you to perform some simple checks on them if needed.

After your video call, the vet will send you a message with a custom treatment plan to help your pet feel better, including a link to buy any recommended prescription or over-the-counter medications. Place your order and we’ll ship it free.
