Hello all! I am new to the ferret mailing list and I enjoy reading all the e-mails.I thought I would introduce my self and my 11 fuzzies.My name is Marsha and begining with the oldest: Fred who is 7 yrs. old and unfortunately is trying his hardest to get rid of those nasty ulcers that he has.Also we call him knuckles because his feet have gone bald on the top and bottom,if anyone has heard of anything like this before it would be greatly appreciated if you could share some info. My vet is great and doesn't seem to think there is anything wrong.Then there is Polar Bear and Gripes who were 5 yrs. when both of them passed away,not under my care,so I really don't know what they died from.Then came along Seela who is 2.5 yrs. and the sweetest girl on earth.She would never hurt anyone and she'll do anything for a treat.Next came along Sadie, I rescued her from bad hoomans.I didn't know much about her,and only had her a year when she became sick and passed within 2 weeks.The vet I had at the time did not have a clue.Seela was very sad about the whole thing and went into a depression for almost 5 months.The next two additons to the family were Snoopy and Chaos, you can probably guess Chaos's nature,they are both about 1.5 yrs. old.Next came Roscoe who is 8 months old,and then Chocolate who is 7 months old and Baby who is 5 months old.Last but least came along Noogie who is 2.5 yrs. old that a co-worker of mine gave to me.All of my ferrets are great and very much spoiled,and the 3 who have passed away will be greatly missed.I have learned tons of info. on ferrets although I am not a vet, but if anyone does have any questions I would be more than willing to help. Talk to you later, Marsha and the Eight is Enough business. [Posted in FML issue 2358]
