Nose not shedding complete.

[Spicyshorts]

Hi there! The last two sheds there has been a spot on my panther's nose that won't come off. Is it something I should worry about ? I could probably pull it off but I don't want to cause it to hurt him by doing so. He has let me rub it trying to help it come off but it didn't fall off. I attached a close up picture. Any advice helps!!

I would say to take a wet q-tip and gently wipe the skin with it until it's nice and moist. You may be able to just gradually peel it away while you wipe at it. If it doesn't start coming off on its own that way, then keep moistening it and you can grab it with some tweezers and gently take it off that way. It just needs a bit of moisture to help loosen it.

Is the humidity high enough? Upping the humidity during a shed by increased misting usually helps the shedding process. Too low humidity makes it more difficult for them.
