Boo-Boo's labs were all over the place, but the last of them showed all values normal, including kidney (thank God). But as for Pixie---a couple of times when I fed her ferretone... I could swear she ground her teeth. Maybe I'm being paranoid because of Boo-Boo?? He still grinds his teeth and wont eat kibble, although he's sniffed the bowl a few times he wont eat any of it. Could it be a wash-over from that, paranoia?
But I don't see any lethargy in her or 'illness' like symptoms. But again, I could swear she ground her teeth a couple of times after ferretone. Although, I've not witnessed anything unusual when she's eaten kibble. She just looks skinnier than I ever remember her ever being.

If you are in the northern hemisphere in some locations ferrets are starting the normal Spring things like weight loss, fur loss, or both so be sure to factor that possibility into what you consider. Sometimes when a person has been dealing with one who has an illness like Boo Boo's (kidney if I recall the test results right) it becomes easy to forget what is the norm.
