User's notes
Wombat spotted on neighbour's property, looks like it has mange, so we have contacted Wombat Care Bundanoon to see if they can treat it.

Hi Helen, we have managed to get 4 treatments of Cydectin onto the wombat and one side of him looks quite healthy, the other side has healed up but he still is missing hair which should now grow back. He is definitely not as lethargic and we are hardly seeing him during the day now, the neighbour saw him wandering around his backyard late last night, so that's a good sign that he is on the mend
