ok...i read the whole thread...now i dont feel like a crazy mad weird person any more....Smokey wears bellybands inside 24/7....we wipe him with a wet wipe everytime we change him.....the only time we wipe his "hinny" is when he leaves a "dingleberry"....like when he is outside in the wind...his hair is cut really short but we leave his little tail hair very long......and also a tip for you ladies that have little "bellyband" men....if they get irritated and red you can use the hypoallergentic type of Desitin Ointment....before we started taking an hour walk in the after noon(this week)...and I have lost 5 lbs....yay me....anyways he would be red ....i called my vet and asked him and he said as long as it was just a light film of the ointment ...he didnt see a problem...so i did it...i put just what would fit between my finger and thumb on the red areas and the next morning the irritation was all gone....i came up with the idea cause we were talking about having to take him into the vet to check it out....and i just thought...hey if it works on little babies...then why wouldnt it work on little furbabies....it works great......but like i said he hasnt been red at all this week....my hubby calls it his hour of airring out....lol...and we use the parent's choice wipes that are scent free....so we have no allergy problems....and i cut them in half....glad to see im not that "WEIRD" afterall.....lol
