Subject: Rat Tail?
Greetings all. I've been reading all the info on rat
tail, as I suspected that Brak has it. I used the
facial scrub on him for a week and it seemed to
improve a bit, but not very much. I then decided he
need to see the vet. The vet says it's probably not
that, it's something else (sorry, forgot the name but
it had 2 words and they sounded the same and started
with an F). Anyway, he gave Brak a shot of antibiotic
and then had me put him on oral antibotics. 1/4 pill
of what looks to be Baytrill (can't read the vet's
writing) #22 once a day. He seems a little
better/maybe the same. Has anyone heard of this?
Should I be taking any precautions as to the medicine,
like more water, food, anything? He didn't chew at
his tail but it was red, scaly and losing hair. My
vet didn't think it was adreanel. Brak is just past
his 1st birthday.
Love to all fuzzies,
Veronica, Snowball, Brak, Cassie, Cosmo & Paco
