I have two ferrets and recently noticed that when i cut their back nails
they seem to be very sensitive and brittle.  Their feet look fine(I don't
believe they have any fungus)I also have their cage floors covered with
linoleum flooring) could it be a lack of something in their diet?  If
anybody has had the same problem or suggestions I would really appreciate
any advice given.  also I'm thinking of getting another ferret and I know
I've contacted the local shelter and have been told that they've been hit by
"green slime" I don't really want to take any chances of getting my 2 babies
sick...any suggestions on this?  Where else could I get a ferret?
