Took her to the vet, and it turned out she had an almost non-functioning thyroid gland. One of the symptoms is a nasty odor. After a few weeks on a very inexpensive medication (which was for life), she smelled great, and she felt so much better. None of the possibilities you've been given can be cured by you. You must take your fur baby to the vet before whatever is causing this gets worse. You don't want him at risk or in pain. Let us know what the vet finds out. | That one is a great one. I never even thought of that.
