To Jason Creager concerning Fosgate - Jason, has you vet run any type of bloodwork or done any type of diagnostic techniques to find out what is wrong with Fosgate - Fosgate's habit of taking a few steps and falling over, or playing for only a few minutes and going to sllep is very reminiscent of a low blood glucose level, which is commonly seen in ferrets with pancreatic islet cell tumors. Rather than just say, "Yes it's his time", I would rather look at all of the evidence, and a complete blood panel is the only way to get it....If your vet doesn't know much about ferrets, find one that does. I'm sure that someone on the list knows of a good vet near you...
