  Not Ranked. Helpful AND tactful post? : 0 Shelia is losing fur! = ( | |
I just got two guinea pigs from the Humane Society and they're 1 year old sisters. Well, Shelia, who is a satin teddy bear, is losing small tufts of fur on one spot by her lower back. The Humane Society did a mite/flea check just before I got them and they believe neither pig has a problem, but they wrote they noticed the same spot. Also, the fur that remains on her spot has some wierd brown 'build-up' that's dried on her fur, still just in that one spot. It doesn't seem to bother her but I'm still worried. Is this normal? The Humane Society gave me 2 free exam coupons to the vet. Should I take Shelia to the doctor or should I not worry? Thanks for all of your advise! |
