Hi When you talk about "Shedding/ Hair Loss" are you saying that your ferret is going bald or are you saying that your ferret is going from a long winter coat to the much shorter summer coat, if it is the latter then all I can say is that it is natures way of telling your ferret that spring and summer is on the way, where as if it is the first point and your ferret is going bald then you need to talk to a vet about it and I am quite sure that people on here will point you in the right direction of a good ferret vet. Please contact me I can be of any help, I am not a vet and in the past 30+ years none of my animals have visited my vet for anything other than routine check up. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/intact-ferrets/ Come see my ferrets http://www.geocities.com/houseferrets13uk/Tonys_Pets.html Some of our fund-raising events http://www.geocities.com/houseferrets13uk/Show.html [Posted in FML issue 5166]
