I took Chip to a Ferret Vet. She told me she would
take xrays, but it would not change the treatment. The
results would be more for my benefit than for her
diagnosis. She put him on 1mg of Prednisone, 2x daily
for 5 days, then once a day until his next appointment
in 2-weeks.



Not sure I agree with not doing diagnostics, but since I can't feel
his spine, I'll defer that point. Glad he's on medicine now, and
hopefully it will make a difference for him.
