>dr. schiff of wise owl used to be, and allied does not answer their phone, >so WHO is an after hours vet for ferrets in the detroit area? If nobody offers a specific name for you, I would suggest checking your phone book for animal hospitals/vets that provide after hours service. If cities like Rochester, NY have emergency animal hospitals that provide service after hours, I'm sure larger cities like Detroit must certainly have the same or similar services available. Call them and find out more information. Three in the morning isn't the time to do that calling! ;) Ferret Tarot: Let's see... The Fool - a weasel in full wardance splendor The Magician - a mage in his workshop. Ferret dancing on his workbench.
