Title: Sorry - can anyone remember the name of the rippling skin disease thread?

I can't and someone is concerned their cat may suffer from it. Thanks.

Not sure about a particular thread but think the name of the condition is hyperesthesia.

Cat needs to see a vet if showing any of these signs asap

The cat is going to the vets tomorrow, I'm told.

Yes, that's it. But there was a discussion while a Purrs member tried to get the condition under control; I was hoping to ask  them a few questions on this persons behalf if they were comfortable with that. :)
