Hi all,
This morning I woke up to find my boy Fred with a large chunk of his fur solidified in something hard and whitish. He currently lives with his brother George, could I have some help identifying what it is and how to remove it?
Thanks x

Oh dear. I think that looks suspiciously like boar glue :whistle:
It sets hard like glue or concrete! You can either try to cut it out from his fur or leave it until it eventually grows out and drops off. There’s no substance known to humans that removes boar glue !
