[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 72914, member: 1991"] We put bandaids on scabs because difficult child 3 will keep picking. He had surgery on his wrist over a year ago, it was still trying to heal while we were on holiday in June. We finally put one of those expensive "leave it on for a week" dressings. It did the trick. A problem with the hair chewers, and even with the clothing chewers to a lesser extent - they can get a nasty hair ball which can block the stomach outlet and even cause ulcers. It's called a trichobezoar. If the clothing is purely synthetic the problem can happen there, because synthetics and hair do not digest easily. So if stomach symptoms are around - mention the possibility of hair ball, in a chewer. Marg [/QUOTE]
