This is Nell in Ethiopia. Jonas has lost his hair again, fairly suddenly, and today he got a sunburn! I hear that human sunblock is bad for dogs, so I assume the same's true for ferrets. What do you recommend? He was a silver ferret as a youngster, then became a black-eyed white w one black nostril and one black dot on his head, and is now basically a pink guy w white head, tail, and limbs -- and one black nostril. Sound like adrenal to you? He is lively and seems like a normal old man except for his hair. Quite some time ago I read in Williams or Queensbury that an adrenal ferret can be symptom-free other than the cosmetics of hair, and that no treatment is needed in that case. But I am going to check that I remember correctly, and we are going back to our Swiss vet when she gets back from a field trip related to her wild-animal job. Nonetheless, any advice wd be welcome while we wait. [Posted in FML 7350]
