To Paula M. Webb, I response to your response to my posting to Lisa. Maybe you should have read Lisa's posting about her ferret losing its fur for a long period of time and complaining about where she purchased her ferret, that they should have told her ferrets get diseases and complaining about the cost of treatment. I am very much a ferret person and I believe that if you can not provide adequate vet care for pet then you should not own one, all animals require medical care whether it is yearly physicals and shots or emergency care you know that going into pet ownership. Again research is the best policy, I don't know what publications you read but everyone I have ever read contains info on adrenal disease and all the other medical conditions ferrets can get. So before you slam me for slamming someone else (which I feel was done tastefully) maybe you should know all the facts. [Posted in FML issue 2942]
