Hudsons Tummy




His bedding is washed in non bio so it can't be that, i have used a softner but only a Surecare which is one i used for Charlie who had bad skin. Although the last time i washed the bedding i didn't use any softner.

The only other thing i can think of is the spray i used to clean out his tray in his cage when he was sick in the car at the weekend. Its a dettol spray but unperfumed and doesn't contain bleach its something i use on Connies changing Mat and High chair so i thought it would be gentle.

The vet said it could be a reaction to the tick? I thought it might be fleas as he scratches a lot but the vet couldn't see any and didn't agree. He has had an antibiotic or steroid injection on Friday (Matt took him so not sure what it was) but I was hoping to see an improvement by now. I need to bath him today in an antifungal/antiseptic shampoo which the vet gave us.

Heres some pictures the rash is lumpy round his willy and a bit kind of scaby on his chest area, Really hope its not something we have done.
