I've just cut Smudge's nails and I've noticed lots of tiny, tiny, just about seeable, brown bits in his fur. I can just about make out that they are moving and now I'm panicking. What could it be?
I've had a look at Mischa's white patches and can't see anything with him. Am assuming Mini is ok too. Nutmeg has no white apart from her tum which I doubt she'll let me look at. Smudge's fur is a LOT thicker than the lops and Nutmeg's so I'm guessing it would be easier for him to pick stuff like this up.
Has anyone any ideas? I'm panicking that it's fleas. As an aside Smudge also has a bald patch on his neck. I was assuming that it was where he is indoors and has moulted from that area as he used to have a lot of long fur there, but now I'm wondering if that connected but the area shows no signs of flaky skin whatsoever and is usually not noticeable unless he bends down to clean or eat.
