My two year old Giesela has started to smell distinctly more ferret like. I usually only bathe 3 or 4 times a year so I thought I'd give that a shot since it was about time (I don't think bathing really affects how they smell, I bathe occassionally because since I'm not a ferret I wonder if an occassional bath might feel good). Anyway she still smells stronger than normal. It seems that once quite awhile ago someone mentioned this may be an early sign of an illness? Everything else seems fine. I thought I should ask just in case. Mary, Boris and Giesela [Posted in FML issue 2046]
