I have a question. I have a 5.5 year old hob who had a sudden
onset of testicular swelling. Submitted for neuter the pathology report
revealed a sertoli tumor.

Since the surgery he has become extremely lethargic , his appetite has
waned - though no sign of infection etc has presented itself. We are no 3
months post op- and this ferret has become close to a bag of bones. Should
we be looking in another area, or is this perhaps depression from hormonal
shift???

Appreciatively,
