I'm worried about my 2 yr old female MF; she's always been tiny and sorta bony hipped (but energetic and more stubborn than anything else I've ever come across) - but today I noticed what *may* have been bloody mucous on her stool. It also seems more grainy than her cagemate's. She's going to the vet anyway next week, but I was wondering if anyone had some helpful advice. I'll bring a fresh stool sample with me to the vet. Could this just be too many raisins in one day? I'm not certain there was blood; it just seemed to have a bit of a waterier, darker covering. She's quite bouncy and fulla beans, and her winter coat is fluffy and seems healthy...Her poops are rather runty, but so is she; she's always been skinny, and I've yet to find a duck soup recipe that interests her to fatten her up. If anyone knows what might be causing this, I'd like to have some ideas when I talk to my vet, since for all his good heart he doesn't know ferrets as well as I'd like. On the topic of food, I can't agree more about the difference a good food makes. We've seen better coats, brighter eyes, and tons more bouncing and war dancing since switching from cat food to Totally Ferret. I was hesitant about the price, but it's worth it to see them so energetic. [Posted in FML issue 2193]
