Often owners describe unusual behavior from their feline companions. One such behavior involves twitching of the skin along the back, sudden apparent bursts of energy and exaggerated grooming of the dorsal back. Cats may appear somewhat frantic. These are some of the signs of feline hyperesthesia syndrome. See your veterinarian if your cat is displaying these signs.
