Subject: Weight Problem!

My Husband and I rescued a ferret about 2 months ago, and the
little guy was
a beef cake. I bet he weighed about close to 2 pounds. He couldn't
even
stand on his hind legs. Anyhow, we have recently moved, and he has
lost
weight. I mean the weight loss had begun before we moved but
recently we
have noticed the weight loss more. His previous owner had him in a
one level
cage, and never let him out to exercise. We were wondering if it is
normal
that he has lost so much weight due to all of the exercise he gets
running
around and playing with his sisters? Or should we be really
concerned?
Though, we can't take him to the vet like anyone else can.... Due
to the
fact that we are in California, and you all are our only hope. I
hope to
hear from you..:)
