To Michelle: Maybe you would like to call my vet, Dr. Anna Edling, at Hickory Vet Hospital in Plymouth Meeting, PA. (610) 828-3054. She holds a Lupron clinic every 4 weeks, and she will be able to give you an idea of how to find the drug. She may be able to tell you how to contact the manufacturer to locate a pharmacy in your area. And do try the Lupron! My wild man Jake (the Alpha ferret here either because no one else wanted the job or perhaps because he dances the craziest) had adrenal surgery once and is not a good candidate for a second surgery. I took him in for his first Lupron shot 4 weeks ago. His fur was rough and it was very thin over the shoulders and at the base of the tail. He had also developed that avocado shape again, as well as a sexual interest in his buddies. He is going for his second shot in a couple days, but he already looks and acts like a healthy ferret. His fur filled in in two weeks and now it is soft again. Miracle stuff for many ferrets, though not all. Blessings Judith [Posted in FML issue 3044]
