My siamese is once again scratching off the fur around his neck (no
fleas.)  He did it this past summer, but eventually we and the vet
determined that it was an allergy to a different food we had tried, and he
and his fur eventually recovered.

Now, he's doing it again, and there's been no food change (or any other
change we can think of.)  The vet will give him a cortisone shot if we can
bring him in, but that's only temporary.

On a different note, I keep reading about Rescue Remedy.  Does that help
mellow out chicken cats?

Hi Alan,
Yes Rescue Remedy can be helpful in some cats.  I've used it on my cats before
a vet visit and they seem calmer, especially in the car.  You might also want
to look into other flower essences.  Here's an article that might be helpful:
