I can't believe this has happened to me. I've been owned by two ferrets,
Franky and Buddy, for 4-5 years. Now they are both gone. Franky first
with insuloma last December and now Buddy, today, due to a liver ailment.
The vets seem to think Buddy might have had a problem earlier but when
Franky died the stress made things worse.I was thinking it was the
food....maybe a bad batch? I tried a different kind! He just wasted
away.He wouldn't eat or drink much. Everything went right through him.
I forced food down him but was told it was a terminal illness. So I
helped him to the "Bridge" today. He was such a sweet ferret. Very
docile. Not a lap ferret but he made up for it in his sweet disposition.
I sit here and can't believe I've lost them both.
