I would like to know just what amount of food a ferret should be fed following surgery, especially spleen removal. Recently my five year old had adrenal surgery and has been eating at least 30 to 40 cc's of the "recipe" each feeding. He has gained 1/2 lb. from this and is doing great. I attribute this success to Troy Lynn Eckart's referral of an excellent veterinarian!!!! I am "owned" by six ferrets, two of which were adoptees thanks to Troy Lynn. We love them with all our hearts and would go to any lenghts for them. Sincerely, angie george [Posted in FML issue 3656]
