My rat Piper has been showing small health issues for about a week. When I gave him a bath, I noticed cuts down his back, and he began to have minor hair loss, on his lower back and the top of his head. I thought he might have mites, so I gave him treatment.
He still has the hair missing from his head.
And now one of his toes is swollen.
It doesn't look like bumble foot. And I noticed a part where it looks like pus was building up. Perhaps an infection? What should I do?
I'm worried he's getting hurt by his cage mate. There was no problems before, and they have been living together for 7 months.
