In many areas there is still peak shedding going on. Remember to flea-comb, brush, or pluck away excess fur. When ingested fur ball preventatives are needed remember that digestible oil s like Ferretone or Laxatone WILL NOT WORK. Fur ball preventatives work by passing pretty much intact through the digestive system and dragging along the fur. Digestible things will not do that, and even worse is that oils and fats take longer to digest so they slow down digestion Sukie (not a vet) Recommended ferret health links: http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/ferrethealth/ http://ferrethealth.org/archive/ http://www.miamiferret.org/ http://www.ferrethealth.msu.edu/ http://www.ferretcongress.org/ http://www.trifl.org/index.shtml http://homepage.mac.com/sukie/sukiesferretlinks.html all ferret topics: http://listserv.ferretmailinglist.org/archives/ferret-search.html "All hail the procrastinators for they shall rule the world tomorrow."
