Why does my cat twitch and run? My 7 year old female cat has suddenly started twitching her back, running around, stops, grooms herself, and starts running again. I have her on a flea treatment and my other two cats don't do this at all. She only calms down if I pet her or she gets in her basket.

However, there's hope.
