Just talked to the Veterinary Pet Insurance, VPI (1-800-USA PETS), I asked what they cover as far as ferrets. The lady said, hospitalization, prescriptions, and even cancers. I specifically asked, "Does it cover adrenal cancers, that some ferrets get as they get up in years?" Her answer was, "Yes, as long as it was not a preexisting condition at time of enrollment." Hope this helps some. Margie [Posted in FML issue 3506]
