> My 3 yo male ferret had just had a tumor removed from his scruff last week and today I found a red spot in his ribs, this is not a lump like the one removed, it is just very red and the size of a pencil eraser, he had scratched it as he used to do with the lump he had in his neck. Could it be a different tumor? Anybody has seen this in their kids?

Dear Cathie:

This is a post that BEGS for a good picture of what you are talking about. There are a lot of possibilities for a red spot! Is it raised? Is there hair loss? So many questions, so little objective information here. I'd really be afraid to go out very far on this limb without more info..

With kindest regards,

Bruce Williams, dVM
