Our 6 year old piggy Wiggle (rescue, back bread, was bald when we got her) has recently had a second wave of life, she is a happy little thing, though can no longer wheek, it's more of a rasp (vet checked, and all ok, just old age).
Yesterday at evening feed, I noticed a bald patch, about the size of a desert spoon on her right side. It wasn't there at morning feed. It was a clean bald spot, no crusting, flaking skin, blood or scabs. No signs of scratching and we couldn't find the missing hair anywhere. (in the cage or around the house, as we thought the cats might have had a swipe, but that is really unlikely as they are terrified of her!)
Any ideas? She is completely fine in all other respects.
