Cat scratches till she is raw skinned

I had a cat that would clean herself till there was a bald spot. My vet put her on a low dose Prozac feeling it was anxiety. It did help
hno: Definitely get her checked out by a vet. This is NOT normal behaviour, and needs addressing asap. I hope you get to the root of this and stop the behaviour soon :cross:

My boy will do this. So far we haven't managed to pinpoint the issue exactly but it could be anxiety related, but could also be allergies (food, contact, environmental). Definitely take her to the vet, it's not normal and she's probably distressed by the constant itching.
