Hello! It's me again. I have a confusing question for which there are
equally good sides and explanations -- that's why I am confused. I am not
trying to be a flame or troll (whatever it's called!) and start a fight,
that's why I ask that you personally eMail me back so there isn't an
argument betweeen the readers of the FML. I am looking for answers from
vets and experienced pet owners whose pets have lived 7+ years under these
circumstances.
My question is: Should a ferret be descented? I have read that not
descenting can cause anal scent gland blockages. But I have ALSO read that
descenting is unecessary and can cause problems. Will a ferret smell more
if not descented? Is it necessary? Is it safer to descent or not to
descent?
Thanks for taking the time to answer this. I am more confused than ever on
this subject, and want to do everything right so that my future fuzzie lives
a long, healthy, and happy life.
