My cat started paroxetine (Paxil) for an aggression issue about 2 months ago. It’s been working well and we are getting to the point of being able to ween him off which is great. But around the same time he started, I began to see a change in his coat. One of the side effects of the med is decreased grooming, but all of this also played out during winter where I live. So I’m unsure if it’s the med decreasing grooming, the winter weather, or another factor at play. He feels super soft and not greasy at all, he’s a tiny bit dandruff-y but not bad at all, and his skin doesn’t look overly dry or irritated. Eating, drinking, peeing, pooping, and acting normally. No change in diet, and he just had bloodwork done in October and was given a clean bill of health. Does anyone have any experience with this happening to their cats coat? Is it normal?
