I changed Petal's bedding to just hay last week but I've gone back to the old bedding because the new set up I tried was a nightmare and didn't soak up her wee or mess.
Now the old bedding is back she's clean again and no more problems, however there is a still some matting and muck around her 'bits'. It's not from runny droppings, it's just stuck and dried from last week, she hasn't budged it and I can't either. Tried cutting the fur off but it's too close to her skin and sensitive area! Can't comb it out, and I tried holding her and running her back end under the tap and rubbing with a clean sponge but she didn't like it and I couldn't get it all off.
I was thinking I'll have to sit her in a shallow bowl of warm water and soak it off or something but I know she wont stay still, plus how do you dry the fur when it's soaked :?
Any suggestions would be a great help
