A Swedish ferret site owner thinks all US ferrets die very young. It's easy to get the wrong impression of ferrets health through reading the mainly US posts on ferret health. I have to spend a great deal of time here in the UK. explaining to new ferret owners that their ferrets will not suddenly die of all the strange diseases they read about on these lists. They do give the impression that people expect problems from a very young age and most ferrets die fairly early in life. We could do with a few posts counteracting these ideas. Chris.
