I have read the other responses to this, and think the suggestions
made are good. There is one other thing I would add, though. I
would suggest having Fozzie checked by a vet, just to make sure it is
depression and not something physical. In particular, if ADV tests
have not been done on both ferrets, I would suggest running them.
