Hello FMLers,
Last week my vet removed a tumor from one of my Buddy's paws. He sent it
out to be tested and it came back malignant of a fibrous sarcoma cancer.
He believed he got it out and stated that it was a very slow growing cancer
and that it might crop up again. Has anybody had any experience with this
type of cancer? Buddy has recuped nicely and is his bouncy self.
I also have another new ferret. A pet sitting client moved to Tucson and
didn't want to take him so I got Bert, a 4 year old silver mitt. When I
petsat him he would return to his cage to use his litterbox, even though
there was a box outside his cage. I hope the change doesn't stop that
behavior. I have to try to integrate him with the other three guys/girls.
Buddy and Emma won't be a problem but Amber, my little champagne brat, will
beat the snot out of him, as she did with Buddy when I first got her. She's
already attacked him twice. She is a little cutey though. She is from a
private breeder and a late alter so she is not as mellow as MF ferrets.
She's kinda mean to other ferrets but is a real love to people. She loves
to be held, once you catch her:-).
