I have a 3 year old longhaired ragdoll mix that is pulling out the hair on his tail. This started about two weeks ago, I thought it was just spring shedding at first, but the last few days he has been pulling out clumps of fur, till there isn't much left at the base of his tail. Has anyone else had this problem?
What might cause this? What can I do about it? (He has an appointment with our vet next week, but I would like to help him sooner.)
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Mieander
