Hi Julian
Only time I have seen this was when we left a bath in with a Pere Falcon when it got very cold and she just loved to stand in the bath, this i believe caused the layers that form the Tallon to soften and shed earlier than they should. We took the bath out and within a few weeks she was back to normal. It's a shot in the dark M8 but if there is a bath in there take it out and see if it clears up
