I mentioned my concern about Billy (my friend's Hagen ferret) who was
suffering from some strange problems and asked for advice.  Thanks for the
replies.
 
Billy passed away this afternoon.  Apparently he suffered kidney failure.
Dr. B. will perform an autopsy on him tommorrow and we'll hopefully know
more then.  He slipped back into a comatose state and the steroids didn't
revive him this time.
 
She's having a real tough time with this.  He was barely a year old, the
poor devil.
 
We can only hope to learn from his death I guess.
 
Tah,
