She said that since his tail is not losing hair, and his energy levels are
up and he is showing no behaviour problems, he's not adrenal _yet_, and we
just need to watch him for the next few months.

It's not full baldness yet, just really thin...there is one patch about the
size of a dollar bill folded in thirds right on his butt that it completely
bald, and I looked for the "5 o'clock shadow" of new growth but nothing is
growing in on him.
