Greetings all! My name is Trisha and I live in Orlando, FL USA. My boyfriend and I are currently owned by 3 ferrets...Loki, Thor & Odin (plus 7 cats, 1 dog & 3 snakes...it's a zoo around here sometimes!). We got Thor from the local shelter about 3 weeks ago, and he's put on some weight, but he still looks & feels very skinny. He's eating & drinking just fine...we feed Buffalo Blue kitten food & I've been giving him treats of Nutrical. The vet says other than being a bit underweight (just under 2 lbs) he's healthy. My question is, should I start suplementing his diet with some canned food/duck soup/etc? Or should I just keep an eye on him & make sure he doesn't start losing weight?
Thanx in advance!
Trisha
