Alyssa is moulting really bad so i helped her with the aid of a grooming mitt, and a lint brush. she has a massive area of her back which is just short hair, and her hair is coming out in clumps. I have also noticed a bald patch just above her front leg, its not inflamed or flakey, its just pink.

any advice?

should i continue grooming her to get away as much excess hair as poss?

I'm glad it was nothing serious. When Carlton moults he goes bald around the eyes if I help remove the fur! Whoops!
