| Oh my gosh!! Mitzy does this too.. ONLY at night before bed and early morning. Rarely during the day and definatly not as intense. My vet has been doing a food trial for the last 3 months and benedryl and prednisone did not help at all. Vet thinks its a food allergy but I'm skeptical.. But ill try anything. I'm VERY interested to see what responses you get as she's been itching for months.

| Mine does this as well! She'll really bite at her hind legs in the middle of the night and first thing in the morning! |

Edit: I just looked up what Mites cause and she has no hairloss and isn't raw....like it's a lot of scratching but it subsides after a few minutes and she'll go to bed...My vet thought allergies too but benadryl didn't help at all, and i had her on Natural Balance just incase for months and it didn't affect it at all....sigh poor Mya...
