My sweetest, cuddliest ferret Charli died Sunday. She had been losing hair for some time, but our vet didn't want to use any drastic treatment because her health has never been very good. We got Charlene from a Humane Society last February, and she's always been lethargic and a little out of it, but she'd let us hold her for hours. She was best friends with our three-year old neighbor. Anyway, over the last couple of weeks she developed some kind of infection which made her pant and have gasping episodes. The vet put her on Amoxidrops and Nutrical, but she slipped away anyway....
