Hello and Happy Holidays Fellow Ferret Friends,
 
I'm just experiencing my 1st results with the "Ferretonin" implants and
I'm absolutely thrilled.  Emmie Lou was not a surgical candidate - she's
an old, old girl and didn't have an ounce to spare.  Her implant was
placed on September 10th and Emmie is starting to re-grow hair over 90%
of her body right now.
 
The 1st change I observed was that her obsessive licking stopped.  Emmie
would compulsively lick my (or anyone else's) entire face, hands, etc
This behavior changed after only a month.  Now she has short hair growing
in at 3 months since implant.  This is the 1st time I will ever see what
color Emmie is as she was naked when she came to me!!  Looks like a
Silver to me so far.
 
I do not know if this is related to the implant or not, but Emmie has
also gone from a little whisp of a ferret who the vet did not want to do
surgery on due to her frail condition - to a robust sturdy little girl.
She has always eaten "soup" at least twice a day since I've had her and
still does.  This is the 1st winter I've had her, so it could be winter
weight - no way to really know unless she keeps it on well into next year
I guess.
 
I will post pictures as soon as possible - but thought you'd like to hear
from someone who's tried the product with good results.  I'd do this
again in a heartbeat for any of my adrenal ferrets who are not surgical
candidates.  I'd really like to see what kind of results we get with a
female who has swelling.  I purchased these implants at: www.melatek.net
