Hi all:
 
I have another one of "those" questions.  I recently posted that I had
adopted #'s 7 & 8 to my little "business", Butch & Sundance.  My question
pertains to Sundance.  He smells very-much BAD!  I just bathed him 3 days
ago and already he has a very distinctive urine-type odor around his neck
and shoulder area (mostly his shoulders).  He is an absolute sweetheart and
I dearly love to nuzzle into my fuzzies sides and necks, but poor Sunny (as
we've begun calling him) reeks so bad that you can't bear to be that close
to him, which is sad because when he's clean and I do snuggle him he seems
to really enjoy it, playing with my hair, etc.  So, what do I do?  I use 8
in 1 ferret deodorizing shampoo and change my "kids" bedding every 3-4 days
(we're shedding, don't ya' know).  He's a VERY yellow silver or DEW with
just a few black guard hairs on his hind quarters.  He's also very
bony-feeling and shakes like crazy whenever first picked up.  Help, please.
I don't know how to control this odor.  I've only smelled one "whole" hob
and this scent is very much like that but coming from ONLY his upper body.
Anyone with ANY help whatsoever, please e-mail me directly or if you use ICQ
my UIN is 1947226.
 
Thanks in advance for all your suggestions.
 
Apryl (and the Fantastic ?Six?) that just became EIGHT!!!
