Well, no one has responded, so I'm guessing either my message got lost in
the shuffle or no one has any wisdom to offer. Gab is going to the vet
tomorrow. Again, though, please, if you can shed any light on this, I'd
appreciate it. I did much searching on the net and came up with
inflammatory ear polyps, but also that they are much more often seen in
cats than in ferrets... so we're kind of going into the vet's office
without much information right now.
