Subject: [ferrethealth] concern over elbow luxation
To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com
I have been digging through the FHL archives and found lots of
instances where people report luxated elbows, but all appear to be
after some sort of injury, and it was obvious the ferret had a problem.
In the case of my Izzy, I never would have found out her elbows weren't
right if we were not xraying her for something else. The vets I work
with (the ones that took the xray) are not the most ferret savy, so
they have not a whole lot to say about it. I am not in any immediate
concern because, as I mentioned, she does not seem to be in any pain,
or bothered in any way. I am just at a loss now because I do not know
what to do for her if needed, or who to go to for it. I have had some
bad luck with vets in my area (Twin Cities, MN) over the years when it
comes to not so common cases, and have no idea where to go. Is there
someone that could recommend what I should do, if anything, in this
type of a situation.
