Hi there...
 
Anyone have any exoerience with medication for hypertrophic
cardiomyopathy?  I've posted before about Frito, my 3 year old boy who is
now taking 10 mg Propranalol a day for his heart.  He seems constantly
exhausted these days, from the medicine. WE're lowering the dosage, but
I'm wondering whether or not we sould do something different?
 
ALSO:  suggestions for how to get them not to destroy the carpet around a
doorway?  I heard chicken wire....  Hmmm.
 
ALSO:  What's dangerous about the laundry room with them?  The dryer hose,
right?   But how can they get out of the house that way unless they scrawl
through the lint screen?  Unless they bypass the machine all together and
somehow push aside the hose?  And refrigerators?  Luckily, I've never had
a problem with this, biut I was wondering what the danger was.
 
I've had ferrets for a few years, but only now am I getting my own washer
and dryer, hence the questions.
 
YEAST PILLS:  What is it about yeast pills hat are bad for ferrets?  The
bottle says dogs under 10 pounds shouldn't get mre than one pill a day.
Why?  Frito, who never eats enough, would eat THESE all day if I let him.
I'm wondering why they're bad.  Too high a % of protein= bad for kidneys?
 
FLEA SPRAYS:  We;ve never had a poroblem before, but we just moved into a
new house where the fleas had stayed in the carpet from the previous
owner. <Sigh.>  Any suggestions for SAFE powders and sprays?  I tried one
spray, and the ferrets HATED IT.
