Hi, Risa!
 
FYI: Although insulinoma is one of the most common causes of hind end
weakness it can actually be caused by any major health problem in a
ferret.
 
RiccoRobertAdaTinaArtie:
Find out exactly what pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, fertilizers,
etc. are used on the sod then pay for a consultation with the ASPCA
National Poison Control Center
 
It is $50 per case.

Also, check their bulletins in:

Here is another:

>Angell Memorial Animal Medical Center (Jamaica Plain, Boston,
>Massachusetts, USA) has just announced the creation of a new
>Pet Poison Hotline, just in time for the holidays. The number is:
>1-877-2ANGELL (1-877-226-4355)
>
>According to the press release, the team staffing the phone lines
>consists of more than 25 veterinarians - six board-certified animal
>toxicologists, 20 veterinarians and other professionals specially
>trained to manage poisonings in animals.  They are on standby 24 hours
>a day, 365 days a year.  There is a $50 charge, but considering the
