Dr. Ruth,
Thank you so much! No bald patches anywhere and yes there has been a
cloud of fur. I have upped the FerretLax as well as once a week
giving a watery Duck Soup/Vetasyl mix and she has passed a number of
hairball tubes.
Minor change in housing, she used to sleep with her gib companion but
when I got a new gib who got along best with my boy, they've bedded
down together and so I moved Tiramisu over to the sprites' cage.
As well I did move into an apartment in the city from a shared house
in the country in September.
She's a black roan mitt and the new fur that's coming in is quite
black so she's giving some major fashion statement : )
Thanks again!
Warm Regards,
Tressie
