Can anybody help me with this? My 1 1/2 yr. old ferret Boo has a bump or growth at the end of her tail!! I took her into the vet a few mos. ago for a checkup and shots and pointed it out to him then. The vet thought it was an overgrowth of scar tissue, like that she had somehow injured the tip of her tail and it just healed wrong. I was satisfied with that answer given that I did remember a time when she was weasling through the couch and we heard a squeal and by the time we got there she must have freed herself from whatever had her. So I thought OK. It doesn't seem to bother her, you can touch it without complaint. BUT, it has gotten bigger in the last few mos. !!!! So now we're kinda worried. Does this sound like anything? I wanted some advice from fellow ferreteers out there, maybe someone has the same thing. I just don't want to have to take Boo in to the vet and have him chop part of her tail off if I don't have too!!! :( Please give me any ideas or suggestions, I appreciate it!! Thanks.
