Is my ferret's surgery
safe?
“In my practice, one of the most
common questions asked when a ferret needs
surgery is, "Is it safe?" This is a very important question that
should be asked. Before it is possible to
answer this question, we must clarify and
qualify several different aspects of ferret
surgeries.”

Much of the information
presented in this website was written by people with experience
caring for ferrets, but unless specifically stated in the article,
they are not veterinarians.
Ferrets that are sick
should be seen by a qualified and experienced "ferret vet" immediately.
Ferrets often don't display signs of illness until it has become
very serious and they can go downhill very fast. Don't
wait for answers from this web site or try any "home remedies"
even if they are listed here. Inappropriate treatment
and "do-it-yourself" diagnosis can be life threatening to your
ferret.
