Hi Michel
How stupid of me I only had a quick glance - I looked again as you
said, and yes - I had assumed it was 2 tone fur!! Poor Dribbel -
scabies is a lot easier to treat than ringworm, so with your help he
will soon be back to full strength. Any ideas what happened to the
other piggies? I can't imagine the others were as lucky - it must have
been very hard for you to choose which animal to take?
