>Hello, about 6 months ago or longer there was a new supplemment out for >ferrets or ill kits who were and not eating well. I can't remember what >brand it is? Does anyone know? Here's some information on a few very good (but somewhat expensive) ferret food products recommended for ill or malnourished ferrets. I have used all of these products with each of my ferrets and the products have produced very good results in a short period of time, esp. when the furkid doesn't have much of an appetite for their regular food. Hill's "Prescription Diet Canine/Feline A/D" - Great source of nourishment to 'fatten up' an underweight or sick ferret. Comes in a small can and can only be purchased at a veterinarian's office, not a pet stores. Price per can ranges from $1.25 - $2.00, depending on the vet's office charge.

Comes in concentrated powder that is mixed with water to provide complete nutrition to rehabilitating carnivores with a reduced appetite. Rather expensive and can also only be purchased through a vet's office but provides GREAT results!

They recommend ordering the product through one of their on-line distributors, www.jefferspet.com, for faster service. Jennifer and the dynamic duo, Sasha & Snowball :-) [Posted in FML issue 5069]
