K, this is strange. I posted a couple weeks ago when Loki was rapidly baldi=
ng. I thought for sure his second gland was going. I have an appointment ne=
xt week with the vet. Well, in the past 5 days or so his fur is growing bac=
k wonderfully and I don't see him itching anymore. I can't believe how fast=
and full it is growing back. Would a ferret with an ailing gland regrow ha=
ir like this? The only thing done different for him in the past week or so =
is that he's taken a liking to my other ferret's chicken baby food and he h=
as a bit when she eats hers twice a day. Oh, and I read somewhere on here t=
hat a mixture of baby oil and water spritzed on the skin may control itchin=
g - jeesh, I'd say. It seemed to cease the itching and dryness almost immed=
iately. Not even his shaven parts grew back this fast. I am beginning to w=
onder about the adrenal thing now..there is no urinary problems like last t=
ime and there is no sexual aggression like before. Could it be anything els=
e? Yeah, I know, questions for the vet ;) I just know that there is more k=
nowledge and experience here on this list than this vet has. =
Thanks a bunch :)
