A friend of mine took her ferret to the vet this evening on an emergency and the little girl has insulinoma. She was found and my friend took her in about 3 months ago. She is estimated to be between 2 and 3 years old by two different vets. Now, my friends has the decision to have surgery or not. With Blizzard my ferret that recently died, I opted for surgery back in October. Bliz lived a year after diagnosis and appx. 10 mo. after surgery. What I wanted to find out was if anyone has any information about the average survival time of ferrets with insulinoma. Someone recently posted survival times after surgery. Does anyone know survival times without surgery. Is there a major difference? Has anyone done a study or read a study or just had a lot of observation. We would really like to find out. Plus, does anyone use Program on their ferrets. I have a flea problem thanks to our family dog and have some program that I got free at the vet school.If I use it, do I give the entire dose. It is the cat suspension for 10 lbs or less. My guys are less than 2 lbs each now. Also, I was thinking about entering my guys into a few ferret shows. I got my female her rabies vaccination Friday and forgot to get a copy of the actual vaccine label. I have the date, brand (Imrab) and serial number written down. Do I need an actual photocopy of the label? Thanks (I know there are too many questions-Sorry) ********************** Shelley Straight VA-MD Regional College of Veterinary Medicine ********************** [Posted in FML issue 2073]
