I believe that a supplement like Ferretone is very important for good
health of skin, fur, and the heart. We recently adopted three shelter
ferrets, and even though they were in good health when we got them,
their coats soon showed a big improvement after they started getting a
daily supplement. Their coats are now very soft and supple, with almost
no shedding at all. We alternate days between Ferretone and salmon oil,
0.4 ml of the salmon oil or 0.6 ml of the Ferretone for each ferret.
And, they absolutely love the taste of both. They go running over to
the 'oil bar' looking for their treat, and after each one gets his or
her syringe with oil, the other two proceed to lick their face clean,
getting every last bit of oil.
