First reported in 1980 by J. Tuttle in a scientific article,<unk> , also known as rolling skin disease, is a complex and poorly understood<unk>  that can affect domestic cats of any age, breed, and sex. The<unk>  may also be referred to as<unk> , apparent neuritis, atypical neurodermatitis, psychomotor epilepsy, pruritic dermatitis of Siamese, rolling skin<unk> , and twitchy cat disease. The<unk>  usually appears in cats after they've reached maturity, with most cases first arising in cats between one and five years old. The condition is most commonly identified by frantic scratching, biting or grooming of the lumbar area, generally at the base of the tail, and a rippling or rolling of the dorsal (anatomy) lumbar skin. These clinical signs usually appear in a distinct episode, with cats returning to normal afterwards. During these episodes, affected cats can be extremely difficult to distract from their behaviour, and often appear to be absent-minded or in a trance-like state. The condition is considered mild in most instances and the<unk>  doesn't progress after it has established itself within the cat. Overall, the prognosis for the<unk>  is good, so long as the<unk>  does not result in excessive self-aggression and self-mutilation that may lead to infection. If a cat should mutilate their own tail or otherwise be mutilated, they should be taken to a professional for immediate medical attention, as an infection could cause more harm to them than the wound itself.
