i have a ferret 1 1/2 years old. he is a male sivler mit who had the most beautiful coat youve ever seen! yes i may be partial but it was really a beatiful soft shiny coat. in late colorado winter he began to shed and got his first real spring coat and it is not as long nor as shiny nor as soft~ is this normal for a ferrets summer coat? it is also a different color. it is not as silver as the winter coat. thanks for any input you can give me! elaine [log in to unmask] [Posted in FML issue 2729]
