To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com

This is just a shot in the dark but has Nic Nac been tested for zinc
poisioning? Not sure if there is a test for it but I do remember when
my Dominic was opened up for adrenal surgery he also had a piece of
metal (I don't remember where it was)inside him and my vet said it
looked like a piece of metal from a cage...which galvanized cages will
have. He said some of the symptoms would be anemia,fever,the
runs,vomiting,lethargic, shortness of breath, loss of appetite and
hindleg weakness.. he never had any of these symptoms so what the vet
found was probably something else... zinc poisioning can also come from
galvanized feeding dishes... None of this may apply but since your
little one had some of these symptoms I just wanted to pass this on
just in the small chance it may help.... Wish you best of luck in
trying to get Nic Nac well..there are a lot of people pulling for him..

Jackie
