My little one did a very similar thing last summer and then proceeded to lose the fur on her head, back and rump. It turned out to be an allergy to flea bites. I had had her out in the yard and she picked up a few fleas couldn't have been many as she's an albino and we never saw them! After several days she became very excited and began itching terribly. I called my vet and she suggested that I bathe Jynx in kitten flea shampoo before trying anything else. The itching stopped almost immediately. A month later all of her fur was growing back and she was her normal happy self. I don't know if this might be your fuzzy's problem, but it wouldn't hurt to try it, especially if your baby gets outside often. Sherry L. Evans & Jynx [log in to unmask] [Posted in FML issue 3423]
