So as you may have seen, we just moved across the country with Oakley. Since we've been here, he has been super itchy. I've visually checked for fleas, and haven't seen any. He seems to be kinda itchy all over (but mainly is biting at his butt, above his tail, and then scratching his sides/neck with his back legs). Benadryl helps, but briefly and not completely. He sleeps fine/doesn't seem to be disturbed then. It isn't constant, but is more than normal.
Right before we left, I took him to the vet, and all was fine - he had blood tests done. It was stupidly expensive, and with moving, I am very hesitant to take him without a "I need you to check for this, and this...". He had the same issue when we moved to Charleston, and the vet just said to take Benadryl.
And things to look for? Other symptoms (he does seem to be more sluggish) to keep an eye out for that would make going to the vets a top priority? Or possible it is some anxiety from moving across the country, and currently staying in an Extended Stay!??
Thanks!!!
