Yes--she didn't like it. I resorted to putting it on her foot, and she
would 
first run off with a bizarre gait--"Help, HELP! She's put flesh-eating
acid 
on my foot!--and then lick it off. I found some Friskies treats that 
incor****ated it that she loved, but after 6 months or so she lost her
taste 
for them. Now I have her on food that is supposed to help. It is either 
helping, or it is the season.

Which reminds me: I need to get out the furminator and give her a going 
over. Nail-clipping she doesn't mind. Combing is more problematic.
