Hello all! Here I go again and I'll try to keep this one short. I have been looking into providing a more healthful diet for our babies. They are currently on a mix of Purina 1 kitten, Science Diet kitten, and Totally Ferret. I will probably keep the Totally Ferret, possible the Science Diet, and add one of the Innova Evo diets. (I *love* Evo s philosophy of "for people who would like to feed raw, but can't", or something similar.) I've followed the discussion about the "new" Evo ferret diet, which brings me to my first question: since none of my fuzzies have any allergies (that I'm aware of) would I be better off trying to get the ferret formula? I saw something mentioned about a choking hazard with the cat diet, due to the shape of the pieces. I am not sure if either is even available in my area and Evo apparently doesn't list sites which sell their diet on-line. Can anyone provide any of these? We are also looking into the Wysong Archetypal diets, which I ve heard wonderful things about: <http://wysong.net/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=WOTTPWS &Category_Code=FERR> Regarding these diets, I would appreciate any opinions or input from those on the list who are more nutrition knowledgeable than I am, although I've been giving myself a crash course in the dietary needs of the ferret! Wysong also offers a series of Rx prescription diets, one of which is called Adrevar, which is "designed to provide nutritional support to the adrenal gland." I thought this might serve as a preventative towards adrenal problems or be good for ferrets recovering from surgery or otherwise dealing with adrenal disease. I believe the prescription diets have to be ordered through your veterinarian, but if it would work as a preventative, it might be worth the cost and effort! Here's a link to a PDF file on Adrevar: http://www.wysong.net/PDFs/adrevar.pdf You ll need Adobe Acrobat to view it, of course. Again, I would appreciate some opinions and info on these diets. Thanks! Laura & Ed (Plus Miss Mollers, Bonita Nonobadferret, and Bandito Gigante) [Posted in FML issue 5279]
