10 Day old kit is going bald.

Pickle•Dickle · Mar 8, 2011

I have a 11 day old kit who seems to be going bald. He seemed to be a healthy little guy, a little on the small side but healthy. When I checked on him yesterday I noticed he was losing his hair along his belly and sides.

His mom may be "grooming" it off of him. Is he the only kit in the litter?

That's what I was thinking. The mama may be chewing his fur off of him. If you have a picture of the kit, post it because we may be able to tell what's happening if we see what it looks like.
