Hi Everyone,
 
To all those with sick ferrets best wishes to you!
 
There is something that has been nagging at me for a little while and
after reading a post the other day I have to ask.
 
("He is about 11 months old, altered, and not deaf (hopefully he will
stay that way)." FML 2nd October
 
Is it possible for ferrets to get deaf later on?  Over the last few weeks
since Ollie has lost his winter coat I have noticed that he now has a
white triangle patch between his ears and the hair near the insides of
his ears are also going white.
 
He's not deaf at all (except for when it suits him), but is it possible
for them to become deaf.  Ollie will be a year old on Nov.  1st.
 
Maybe a dumb question, but thanks to all that answer.
 
Danni & Ollie
