My ferret is losing hair on her tail.  It happened
once befor for about a week but it all grew back.
Now, almost all the hair on her tail is gone and its
been like that for several weeks. What could be the
problem? Diet? Stress?
 
[Is she in heat?  Fur loss is quite common then.  It's also
possible that it's some other problem.  Suggest you contact
a vet.  If she's in heat, the vet may have to get her out of
it with hormones.]
