That's an easy one. 1.0 cc is the same amount as 1.0 ml. And since
1.0 ml contains 1.0 mg, no conversion is necessary. Give Cleo 1.0 ml
(or cc) of the liquid.
Yes, 1.0 mg may seem like a lot considering that's the dosage
recommended on the bottle for us humans, but that is the recommended
dosage for ferrets.
