It took a couple of months the first time for her belly/skin to be the pinkish color it is normally. Could it simply be the outdoor elements that would cause this? I have caught her drinking water from the plate at the bottom of a large potted plant in my aunts yard. She is normally in my apartment so grass, dirt, plants, etc. are not her norm. Any advise? |
I had the same concern with my Autumn.......that happened to her also. I actually talked to the vet about it and it's normal. The skin tone depends on the color their hair changes to. So don't worry! I'm convinced it's normal.
