Subject: how to prepare for adrenal surgery?

Hello All:

I have a 6.5 year old male fixed ferret (not MF) who
is showing signs of adrenal cancer, esp the hair loss
in random parts of the body, not just his tail, as
well as some weight loss. Other than these symptoms,
he's eating Totally ferret just fine, active,
drinking, etc... What can I do before his surgery to
"pump him up" to make his recovery easier? Would
giving him extra food, like a meat baby food, help put
on some weight? And for the recovery, is the amount
of water (Pedialyte) still recommended 1cc per 1lb of
ferret per hour, 24 hours a day?

It's been a while since I had a surgery and I want
this one to be as easy as possible on Quark.

thank you

becki kain
