PV doesn't tattoo or anything, so there's really no way to tell. >Also - just out of curiosity - I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who >has a PV ferret age 3 or older. We had two that we know were PV and one we think was PV: 1. Knuks - female, died at age 5 with hemangiosarcoma involving the mesenteric lymph node. Had left adrenal removed at 4. No insulinoma. (This is the one we're not positive was PV.) 2. Bosco da Gama - male, died at age 4 with lymphoma. Had left adrenal removed at 3. No insulinoma. 3. Trixie - female, age 7. Never been sick in her life (knocking vigorously on wood). She has gone blind over the last year and just recently had a bad tooth removed, otherwise, she is healthy. Bloodwork last month showed everything completely normal. --Mary & the Fuzzies ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Mary & The Modern Ferrets Trixie, Koosh, & Gabby Read my blog -- http://www.modernferretblog.com/mary [Posted in FML issue 4055]
