My one year old ferret, Misty has swollen nipples. They are enlarged and protruding and a little crusty. She is acting fine and I don't think her vulva is any larger than usual. She has lost some weight in the last month or so but I thought it was summer weight loss. Since it's her first summer since having her baby coat, I don't know what's normal for her. I will probably take her to the vet this week but if anyone has any ideas as to whether this is a serious problem or not, please e-mail me directly. Thank you so much. I love my Misty so much and she's too young to be sick. Adrienne [Posted in FML issue 2746]
