MY 1.5 YEAR OLD ALBINO HAS PATCHES OF RED SKIN.  THE LOCATIONS ARE HER NECK
AND ON HER ABDOMEN BETWEEN THE TEAT ROWS, PROGRESSING DOWN TO HER VULVA.  I
TOOK HER INTO THE VET AND HE SAID IT LOOKED LIKE SHE WAS SCRATCHING OR
BITING HERSELF AND THAT SHE WOULD BE OKAY.  I HAVE TRIED MARSHALL'S
CONDITIONING SPRAY BUT THE REDNESS IS STILL THERE.  AT MOST SHE IS BATHED
ONCE A MONTH.  SHE DOES NOT SEEM TO SCRATCH TOO MUCH ( NO MORE THAN MORE
OTHER FERRET WHO DOES NOT SEEM TO HAVE RED PATCHES), THOUGH I DO SEE HER
LICK OR MUNCH ON THE AFOREMENTIONED AREAS.  THE AREA IS NOT ORANGE OR CRUSTY
AS PER FAQ.  IT LOOKS SIMILAR TO ANY AREA OF SKIN I SCRATCH FOR A PERIOD OF
TIME.  ANY ADVICE WOULD BE APPRECIATED.  IF YOU COULD PLEASE REPLY TO ME AT
[log in to unmask] SINCE I AM BEHIND ON THE FML.
 
THANKS IN ADVANCE.  BYE CHERYL.
 
SNEEUW (I'M FINE MUMMY, CHOMP, LICK, BITE!)
SUSHI (MY SPOT IS NEARLY GONE, PLEASE DON'T SEND ME BACK TO THE VET)
CHERYL (BUT YOU HAVE TO GO BACK IN A YEAR AND THIS TIME WE'LL GET EXTRA
HELP TO HOLD YOU DOWN<GG>).
