Hi,
That's exactly what we have been discussing here. I found a vet group who say
ferrets are steroids resistents and other who say that theory is a nonsense ( all
american vets). In Europe and here in Brazil this kind of problem almost
doesn't exist. I'm thinking that is bacause steroids are our last choice, but I
couldn't find any scientific explanation to this. I think I'll have to come back to
school and begin a study about this.....
Good luck on Samantha's surgery!
