Today, my Scooter (the dook of earl) started walking goofy-footed with a definite left tilt to his head and left stumble. I noticed he appeared to be drooling from the left side of his mouth, although he wasn't in any apparent pain. Although lethargic, he ate some Cheerios. I can't find much information in the archives concerning strokes, how to diagnose, nor what treatments were prescribed. Only some random posts from the end of June 1994. Can anyone help? I tried to send a post to Bruce Williams, but it bounced. I know he is extremely busy, but my vet, although agressive and open minded, is not terribly experienced in ferrets (read she's taken care of mine for 3 years, but doesn't see any others.) Any other vets or other knowledgable members reading this, I'd appreciate some input. You can post to me offline or call me at 1-800-488-8806, and select mailbox 5088 to leave me a message and I'll call back.
