I have a 4ish year old ferret. He was fixed but not descended because hewas a late neuter. He is a real sweetheart and handsome champagne. I noticed that he has a lump oblong in shape a little 3/4 inch long and about 1/2 wide on one side of his anus and another a little smaller on the other side. I'm guessing these are blocked scent glands. I've never had to deal with this and I really don't know what should be done about them. He doesn't seem to be bothered by right now but ferrets are so good at hiding pain and illness. Any suggestions? I do plan on getting him to the vet but I don't know if this is an asap thing or if it can wait for payday (actually I need a couple paydays). If its and asap thing then I'll find a way but I need to know what I'm dealing with. His welfare is most important. Thanks Mike [Posted in FML 6820]
