Okay this is a bit hard to explain but I have seen this issue somewhere before. My 16 yr old male cat is indoors all the time. I brush him alot and he loves it! When I brush his back near the base of his tail, he licks or bites his paws. It really irritates him. I have looked through his fur and seen some dry patches but could this be hurting him? I am very gentle if I ever go over that part with the brush, but I thought it would get rid of any dryness if that was the problem.
Could it be arthritis or something else that I'm not thinking of?
Any suggestions? I am taking him to the vet next month to get his blood done and checkup but everyone here is so helpful and knowledgeable.
Thanks so much.
