The red skin is not from a liver or blood disease. If we put a skin lotion, A & D, or vasiline on it the red skin gets better. It lasts for a couple days and then gets inflamed again. If it was from a liver or blood disease it would not get better from the lotion that we put on it. I was hoping to find something that would be safe for the ferret. I'm afraid that the lotion or A & D could make her sick. Right now we are going to keep up the A & D each night and see if we can keep it away. Thank you for your thoughts and if it was a liver disease we would definitely want to treat that Have a nice day Mike [Posted in FML 8091]
