In regards to the post about ferret pawing at the mouth, and getting blood work done to check for insulinoma/glucose. I try really hard not to be critical, but I can tell you now, I'd never set foot in that vet's office again - clipping a claw too short to get the blood??!! Good heavens, that's painful to have done at the time and for a time afterwards.......there's a nerve in that claw.......that's what veins are for, and if he can't find a vein in a ferret, I just don't think he can possibly be a competent ferret vet.
