My Cat Acts Possessed—It’s FHS, Not Demons

Ever seen your cat suddenly turn into a tiny tornado, biting her own tail, fur flying, eyes wide like she’s seen a ghost? Welcome to my life with feline hyperesthesia syndrome (FHS). It’s not a horror movie, it’s just my cat’s nervous system going haywire. The episodes are wild—one minute she’s loafing, the next she’s twitching, licking, and chasing her own back like it owes her money. Sometimes she even pees herself from the panic. The vet says it’s a process of elimination: blood tests, skin checks, and lots of awkward videos of my cat’s freakouts. No magic cure, just stress reduction and meds. Now my apartment is a zen garden, I stick to a strict feeding schedule, and I’ve learned not to pet her lower back unless I want to lose a finger. If your cat’s acting possessed, don’t panic—just call the vet and maybe invest in a cat tree (and some patience). #CatHealth #PetCare #FelineHyperesthesia #Pets #Cats
