Hi everyone,
I just re-subscribed after a 4 year abscence. I have an urgent question.
I have two ferrets, boy (Mowgli) and girl (Basta), who are 4 and 6
respectively.
Mowgli also has a tumor around the Vena Cava. My vet wants $950 per ferret
to operate. There is NO WAY I can afford this (believe me I would if I
possibly could).
They are being treated with monthly injections of Lupron, and Mowgli is on
Pedia-pred to reduce the swelling around his tumor.
Can anyone, PLEASE, refer me to a vet who can do the 2 surgeries for under
$500? I am so desperate... Is this a totally unreasonable request? It has
been so long I am 'ot of the loop' and have no idea what the going rate for
these surgeries is.
I would be EXTREMELY grateful for any help or info anyone can offer.
Thank you!!
Anne H
