Subject: Zorro and his spleen
Hello again...
Ok...just got back from the vets....oh what fun! Brought in 9
ferrets. 7 for distemper and 1 for rabies, then Zorro for
check up.
Well...no reactions. That is good.
Zorro was not happy with me or the vet by the time we were
done. She took another look at him and listened to everything
I had to say about his spleen and his actions and what Dr.
Williams said. Gosh, I love this vet! Anyways... She took
some blood (poor guy) and took his temp (boy he didn't like
that at all!) which was normal. The blood work might be back
in tomorrow so we will know more then. She agreed on advise
that I received about the spleen and that it might have to
come out and also to check the adrenal glands. She gave us
some amoxicillin because when she listened to him this time
she heard "crackling" so she thinks he might be a little sick
too.
Shawn is home today so he is keeping an eye on the kids.
I will let you know when we know more.
