At the weekend, whilst we were lying in bed giving him cuddles, Louis Catorze chased his tail again.
We let him do it, just to see how long it would go on (happily it was no more than a few seconds) and to see if we could ascertain whether it was playful or something more sinister, but we couldn’t tell. In fact, we didn’t even really know what we were looking out for; I had this idea that sharp pounces were playful and that smoother, more seamless chasing were sinister but there’s no science in that.
Catorze has been Gabapentin-free and doing well for 2 months now, so it would be devastating beyond belief for him to start displaying symptoms again. Please send the little sod your good wishes: not so much “get well” but “don’t you DARE get sick again.”
My tom cat chases and bites his tail only when he wants my attention and I am ignoring him. The female cat never does it, she is too cute. Just thought it might help.

Allo Allo Le Roi, you listen carefully to me because I will say this only once: STOP chasing your tail! Don’t worry your parents again, right?! Just be a good boy! Thank you.
