Hi,
I have a 4 month old Male mini lop that's just been castrated about a month ago. The poor thing had quite a time of it and has spent the last month wearing a collar and going back and forth to the vet for treatment. He's finally been given the all clear and the collar has been removed. He's now decided to pull out practically all his fur, the poor thing is practically bald from the head down!
He's been to the vet who can't find any trace of fleas /mites and thinks it could be due to a bacterial infection or possibly pschyological reaction to his recent trauma. In any case I'm a little concerned, he's also getting through about 250ml of water daily which the vet thinks is a little high (or could just be due to the mouth full of fur he has)
The vet has given some antibiotics and flea/mite treatment just in case but wsa wondering whether this has been seen before by anyone?
