Hi & dooks to all, I have a speyed female 2.5 year old ferret. I am concerned about her because she has never been the healthiest of specimens. She constantly gets blocked anal glands (need emptying every 4 weeks!), and lately has been playing for only half the time of the others. She sleeps a lot, and takes a while to wake up. She also has a cough every so often. She is going to have her anal glands removed in the next couple of weeks because it can't be good for her to constantly have them squeezed. I read in a ferret book that ferrets can have cardiomyopathy, does anybody have a ferret with this? I am worried about her having an anasthetic to have her anals out, if she has a heart problem. Her heart has been listened to many times, but, no problem picked up. Any info or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanking you in advance.
