I hope my reply did not come across with the wrong attitude.    I really appreciate any information or point of view.

My reply was intended to explain the situation that our ferrets live in.  I think our ferrets are getting a high end diet, and do not have to deal with slippery surfaces.  George does have insulinoma and curls his toes (at times not 100% of the time).  He looks good on most days but sometimes I still see some ataxia.

We're going to get some test strips and see if we can test his glucose during a time when we see he has ataxia.  We've never had a much luck with taking glucose reading this way as sticking their toes seems so cruel esp since we have a hard time getting enough blood and we end up sticking 3 or 4 times, just to give up because we couldn't get the blood.  The test strips we have now are expired.

Thank you again

Mike
