Hello to everybody, I would like to ask how often can ferrets have a seasonal fur change. I thought that it was two times a year, one before winter and one around spring-summer. I noticed that my ferret Gigio is changing fur again, he did it in October, then in late February-March, and now again, I am sure that he is not simply loosing hair, because I can see under his actual coat the new hair growing, in other years I am sure that he has mainly changed his fur only two times, but in this year 2002, this is going to be his second change and I am sure he is going to have at least one more by the end of this year. I just want to know if it is common to have more than two changes of coat in one year. Thank you very much. Best regards, Caterina and Gigio. [Posted in FML issue 3804]
