Hi again,
Sorry for the second post I had a call from a lady without computer access
on a problem.
 
Here goes:
She has two ferrets male & female 6 yrs old.  they were raised together and
have gotten along fine , until lately.  The male has begun to pick on the
girl at night.  He will latch on to her throat or neck and stay ( he even
goes back to sleep in this position) meanwhile she is crying to be let go!
This is happening very late at night ( 2or 3 a.m.) There have been no
changes in the household.  Both are freerange .  The vet has put the female
on a diet due to a bit of weight gain but both are getting extra attention
so jealously would not be a problem.  There have been no medical problems
and no hair loss.  The vet is at a loss as to why he does this.  Does anyone
out there have any suggestions?
 
thanks in advance
