Subject: adrenal again?
My ferret, Rommel, has already had one adrenal gland when he
was barely a year old. He came through it fine, grew his hair
back, gained weight, etc. Well, he's 4 years old now and is
once again losing his hair ( his whole belly and neck are
bald), he is very sexually aggressive towards our other ferret
(also male and both are fixed), and basically doesn't play
anymore, just sleeps.
I'm taking him back to the vet for the second time this month
but wondered if anyone had any suggestions on what this could
be. I'm very worried. My husband is away for 6 months on
military deployment and I'm having a difficult time dealing
with this myself. I'm very worried he is going to die.
Please help, Sara
