Barley has more or less permanently had black 'orrible bits round her nip'nops - if I really scrub at them in the bath, they do reduce, but it is obviously uncomfortable for her ....

Mostly the hind ones rather than the further forward ones ....

She has not been spayed - could this just be sebacious stuff which is just not getting cleared because she has never suckled ??  It does seem to get less obvious as she gets older ....

Have you tried a bit of baby oil gently wiped around to soften and eventually remove it?

Cassie - could I ask you to please write your posts more clearly. Too much "txt speak" makes them difficult to read and so will limit the help that you might get.

Thanks for your understanding.
