not cancer. But Dr. Schiff has never seen it before in a ferret and we need to know how to treat it. Tieke also had insulinoma, but the adrenal tumors were benign. I think he got it because his previous owner fed him candy lemon drops as a treat for almost a year. he was like 2-3 pounds overweight. when I got him, I didn't do anything different than the other ferrets - they got a few raisins here and there and science diet/iams food. We also have totatlly ferret now for them to eat. he'll be five August 15. Please, can anyone give us a hand on how to take care of this:? thanks beckers -- becki kain "words are just dust in deserts of sound." eldritch [Posted in FML issue 1486]
