Mark> My 4 yr old female ferret developed a benign tumor at Mark> the very tip of her tail about 6 months ago. The Mark> removal turned out fine, but they had to shave about 2 Mark> inches of her tail. They said it would grow back, but Mark> it hasn't. Has anyone else had a similar experience? I Mark> can't see how it would cause any serious problems or Mark> anything, I'm just curious. Ack! This is not encouraging. One of my ferrets had his neck shaved a couple of weeks ago for a blood sample and boy does he look weird. Part of his neck has stubble but most of it is still bald. -robin. [Posted in FML issue 0798]
