Sudden Hair Loss

[SnickersTheFirst]

Came across the ad by accident on Tesco's site and they are buying for £10 a gram atm which is great! My necklace turned out to be 9g so it's worth selling anything you have

Thank you

Well, the vet is thinking it's Mites atm with a bit of Dermatitis. She's had the injection and needs to have two more (one in 7 days and another 7 days after that). He said there could be an underlying problem but he's 90% sure it's Mites. I also got some Baytril and she needs 2 drops twice a day until she goes back to the vets.

Came to about £26 just for today so not too bad.

Im glad to hear that the vets went ok and she is being treated now. I hope it clears up and she is all better soon. I wish it wasnt so expensive though. Especially as you have to return another couple of times. XxX

I'm glad it's nothing too bad.
I have dermatitis so I know how horrible it is.. poor snickers.
Hope she gets better

Thank goodnes! I was hoping that it wouldnt be anything more serious Hopefully she will be back to 100% in no time!

[SnickersTheFirst]

Thanks all! She was very well behaved and I think she suprised everyone with how friendly she was. She seems to like the Baytril

Will have to see how she gets on with it!

Great to know it's nothing too serious.

Glad to know Snickers isn't really unwell, glad that it is all being solved, get well soon hammy

[SnickersTheFirst]

Thanks guys.

I've never had a pet on Baytril before but roughly when should I start seeing improvements? Her skin is still flaky, dry and scabby; she's only been on the meds for 5 days though.

The vet did say there could be underlying issues due to her age so obviously I want this ruled out.

Glad that things aren't too bad and that all went well at the vet. I think they usually give a course for 7 days or so and then a check up. Sometimes additional meds are needed. Hope improvement comes soon.
