Is there any information available, either researched or anecdotal about
untreated insulinoma resulting in permanent paresis and/or paralysis? My vet has
consulted a specialist at Angell Memorial and this is the conclusion that
we've all come to. I understand that the results are permanent but any small
thing that would help either diet or physical therapy might make even a minute
difference.

Also if anyone could recommend a better cage for a ferret with limited
mobility that would be helpful. All of my cages are built with a lot of room and
many levels, I haven't found one with a lot of floor space that isn't multi
level.
