My little chocolate weasel girl was doing her itchy dance and something caught my eye... Her vulva is incredibly swollen and the color is light pink (if that makes a difference)... She's a MF girl, almost 3.5 yrs old - so my first guess would be adrenal problems. I can't believe I didn't notice it sooner - The kids are handled every day and I just don't know how I could miss something like that. :( Is there *any* chance this could be an incomplete spay? Probably a little late for that... But... Anyone have an experience with that? I'm going to start sourcing out vets & will get her in to the vet asap - the ferrets have an excellent vet, but I'm going to do some comparing. I have a $1,000 in credit available for such emergencies, however, I have no more than that. (One of those poor college students, you know...) Suggestions on great Seattle area vets are very much appreciated! And what should I ask for once I get there? An ultrasound or the blood workup? Tonic is otherwise completely healthy. No hair loss whatsoever, she's fat and her activity level is normal. She seems to be a little itchy now but I could just be paranoid. (No fleas here, believe me I've looked!) If this is adrenal, I'm pretty sure I'll elect for the surgery.. Since she's so healthy. I know it's important to catch this early for the best success - but how high are the odds that there will be more problems in the future? I'm bummed.. Tonic is such a sweetheart.. I just wasn't expecting this quite so soon. Well.. It's time I weed through that info that I have stored away and study up.
