Hi all, I live in NW MO and I have found two knowledgable ferret vets at
Twin Pines Animal Hospital. Great doctors who really care. I guess the
doctors there must feel a bit sorry for DH and I as they dont charge an
arm and a leg for visits--$15. He gives me meds and doesnt charge.
And the two week supply of pred plus amoxil (makes it taste better) is
only $5 for my old lady-Sara Ferret.She is 7 and was abused terribly by
previous owner. She was diagnosed two years ago with lymphosarcoma and
is still alive for which I am very grateful. The vets are amazed at her
spunk. She seems happy enough and manages to get around--her tail is
hairless but most of her hair is otherwise intact. I have had 8 ferrets
but unfortunately three passed on. All are happy little kids. I am
really fortunate to have these vets around that are incredibly decent
to us. There is always room for 1 or 2 more--in fact the vets have my
name and # in case an unwanted furry comes in
Take care all
Carolyn (ferretsey) and her wild band of renegades
