Did you know the name “ferret” is derived from the Latin word furittus, meaning little thief? 🥷

Desexing ferrets is a routine procedure performed under general anaesthesia. As well as reducing their unique musky odour and some undesired behaviours, this is also a life-saving procedure for pet females.

Up to 50% of female ferrets are unable to come out of the oestrus phase of their cycle without mating, resulting in very high levels of the hormone oestrogen, placing them at risk of developing fatal anemia (low red blood cells). 🩸

Gucci didn’t appreciate being the butt of the joke! 🍞

Lucky for her, the purebred costume doubled as an effective e-collar!

We commonly recommend e-collars to prevent pets from licking, chewing and scratching wounds and surgical sites. Keep your pet entertained during these periods with puzzle toys, lick mats and treat dispensers while they heal! 🩺 🐾

🦜 Constricted Toe Syndrome 🩺

We saw Bee 🐝 the Blue and Gold Macaw last week to remove her stitches after a toe amputation.

As young birds grow, if the temperature and humidity isn’t quite right, they are prone to developing fibrous bands of tissue around the digits. These cause constriction as the bird grows, restricting and eventually preventing blood supply to the toe.

Bee 🐝 required a toe amputation. She underwent a general anesthetic under the watchful eye of her new Mum Lesley, one of our passionate nurses👩🏻‍⚕️.

Bee 🐝 has been an excellent patient and recovered well, she is now focusing on enjoying her adolescence with her new family! 🦜❤️
