Is it when she goes through a heat cycle? I would get some blood work on her to make sure systemically there is nothing going on. I would also document when her cycles are to see if she is losing weight while she is going through a heat cycle since it can be hormones. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
