i am currently living in boston, mass. my neutered male ferret has developed impacted anal scent glands. these have been taken care of with warm compress and antibiotics so far, but i am thinking that for bartok's health they should be removed. i have already contacted a number of places for surgery. angel mem. hosp. is charging about $400.00, and most other places are close. i am willing to travel for a better price somewhere. please, if anyone knows of a vet. that has reasonable prices (i am a poor grad. student)... email me directly so as to not clutter the list: [log in to unmask] thank you thank you thank you!!!!
