We always take a little dropper bottle of Ferretone with us to the

If they're staying for the day, the bottle goes with them. It
works
really well for distracting from some things like shots or the
dreaded
temperature-taking. Unfortunately, it's usually not enough for
blood
draws, but it's still handy to have afterwards to take the fuzzy's
mind
off of what just happened. :)
That's what I do for mine. I does work enough for blood draws on
mine. The
vet tech knows that bottle and grabs it before the ferret. It also
really
works when you put a few drops on the scale. They stay still long
enough to
get the weight.
