Excellent advice!
Cutaneous Lymphoma can be quite responsive
to the right meds when ferrets have it so
finding it early can be very important.
Pam Sessoms, one of us FHL Moderators, the
FHL Librarian, and one of the two people (along
with her kind husband, Eric) who have created
and maintained the FHL separate Archives (a real
treasure chest) has written some wonderful
past posts on treating this illness.
Dr. Bruce Williams, another FHL Moderator, and
is world renowned for his excellence in ferret
veterinary pathology has also had some posts
on the topic which can help people.
