I went through chemo with a ferret that was diagnosed with lymphoma via
biopsy - luckily for us it was an external node (submandibular) that was affected
first. We followed the protocol listed in ferrets, rabbits and rodents and
Diana lived for more than 2 years after her initial diagnosis.

I will tell you that it is expensive but the quality of life that Di had for
that time was great and I would do it again in an instant if the same
situation occurred.
