Boy, I wish I was close enough to use Dr. Karen. She is the greatest and
most of what I know about ferret medicine comes from her book. We just
had a left adrenal removed from Miss Bonnie early this month. She was
operated around noon and her vet kept her for about 8 hours. She was
awake in 20 minutes. When we got her home she started gnawing on the
carrier door. I couldn't get her to stop and was afraid she would break a
tooth, so I just let her out and she has been perfectly normal ever since.
