Hi everyone,
My Schnuffel has some really bad mats under his chin that seem impossible to clean.
It's all thanks to the antibiotic/fruit juice combo that got spilled there about a week ago. Since he really struggles with syringe feeding and has an aversion to towels after being burrito'd, I thought that I'd just spare him the clean-up to not stress him out any further.
The next day I attempted cleaning the area with a moist towel but it was really difficult and so I thought that I'd just wait for his treatment to get over with.
Now, after a week the mats are really bad and I don't know what to do. I'm scared to cut them off as I don't want to cut his skin. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
