Allergic dermatitis
Frequent scratching of the face and neck after boarding for several days. The pet mouse could have reacted to various amounts of powder, cream and oral medication applied on behalf of the owner. The mouse had 9 warts removed at Toa Payoh Vets 4 days earlier. So the owner brought all the medication to the boarding shop operator to do the post-op nursing. It turned out that the pet mouse was very itchy after boarding as you can see in the video.

The solution is to wash away the allergens with warm water, under general anaesthesia gas. The procedure is shown in Pt 2/3. Pt 3/3 gives the history of the cause of itchiness - over 9 growing skin warts of which 9 had been excised by Dr Daniel Sing last month (Nov 24, 2018).
