As some of you may know I lost Jake inside my car for a few weeks.He's been back home for about 4 weeks now and has been eating and drinking fine and I haven't noticed any problems with him.
He's never had any problems shedding before but the one he had last night was pretty bad (it's the first shed since going AWOL).I used cotton wool pads and warm water to remove the retained bits of shed and it looks like everything is off now.But I just wondered what would have caused his bad shed?Is it due to the stress of being 'lost' for that time and not eating/drinking properly?

well, they do need water constantly, and if he shed in your car, and if u didn't put water there:D then that should be the case.
