My gib will be 2 years-old next month.

A few weeks ago I rushed him to the vet because he was suddenly having
trouble walking. By the time I got him there he was fine. I asked
about possible Insulinoma because he's been more lethargic than normal
the last couple of months including sleeping longer and more often. The
vet check him over and said he seemed fine and that he was far too young
to have Insulinoma.


**Symptoms sound like insulinoma to me. I have seen ferrets as young as ten
months with insulinoma, although that is rare. Three to four is average, but
two is certainly possible.**
