We have two ferrets on boy and a girl.
The boy is about 10 weeks old and just lost a tooth while playing with me.
It came out quickly and painlessly and didn't bother him at all-a few hours
later you could hardly tell the was a tooth there-should we just leave it
alone and watch or take him to the vet.?
 
Also our girl(about 4-5 yrs old) has stopped eating, except raisins.
Ocassionally she will nibble a piece of her food(Iam's kitten food).  She is
awake and active and doesn't seem to loosing alot of weight.  She is
drinking.  Her fecal matter-love that term, was soft and runny like diarehha
then it looked dark anda little sticky but normal shaped then today again it
look very runny and light in color.  About 2-3 month ago our other male
ferret, Ralph, died in surgery and about three weeks ago my parents brought
us our newest, Trucker(guess what my parents do for a living).  He is
constantly after slinkie, our girl, to play and she is a relativily low key
animal a real cuddler.  Do you think all the changes could have stressed
her?
 
Please answer soon,
