>From: "Capt. Nodrog" <[log in to unmask]> >Subject: De-clawing The ferret is a member of the weasel family not the cat family. It would be better to compare the ferret paw to the dog paw than to the cat paw in that dog and ferret claws are non-retractable. But your advice about not declawing a ferret is absolutely correct other than that little bit. >From: Harko Werkman <[log in to unmask]> >Subject: Going to school on disease processes Thank you! Very informative. >From: Mary Rogers <[log in to unmask]> >Subject: Need Help on Hob Question Please Your vet seems quite on the ball actually. You all might get lucky and the other testicle might descend after all. It happens. There is a point where the chambers seal normally with the testicle in the sac. Sometimes before it gets there. This is not limitted to ferrets so don't worry about the vet. b&d -- bill and diane killian zen and the art of ferrets http://www.zenferret.com/ mailto:[log in to unmask] [Posted in FML issue 2955]
