What's Going on with the Fur?

[WilliamH4]

Any idea what might be going on with Emma's fur? She's had a small area on her back with fur slightly raised for about a month (since shortly after release). Now, I notice today she's lost a little fur above her nose. Didn't notice the area above the nose until she started coming up to me recently.

It looks like molting.

I was going to say the same thing but I wasn't sure. If the round spot was LESS hair instead of more, I would say possible ringworm. But raised up like that I think it's molting. Sometimes little reds get mohawk hairdos for awhile when they're molting, too. :grin2

Thanks for the responses. I didn't even know they molted. Learn something new every day.
