Subject: Re: [ferrethealth] 8 year old ferret- should I risk surgery?
Message-ID: <20040405211347.40947.qmail@web40507.mail.yahoo.com>
My advice would be based on two things:
1. does she eat and drink on her own?
2. does she have the ability to move out of her own
way when she defecates/urinates?
If yes to both, I would do the surgery if she was my
ferret. But it's all a personal choice.
