A quick question: My little boy, Bailey, has an appointment with my world's=
-best Ferret Vet tomorrow morning. I suspect the Dr. will want a blood glu=
cose reading. =

Do I need to withhold food and/or water before the appointment? =

Do I need to know when he last ate and/or drank? =

Should I deliberately feed him (x) number of hours before the appointment? =
=

Please advise. =

(Normally, I'd call the Vet, but it's Sunday & they're closed). =

Thank you for your knowledge & willingness to share!
