If no physical problems are present, the cat may just be stressed out and may respond to tranquilizers or antidepressants. In a study of 11 cats, nine grew their fur back after a tranquilizer treatment. One did not respond to treatment; and one spent a large amount of time grooming herself to the point where she was pulling fur out at the rate it was growing back.
