New toys = happy babies!

Bringing a little joy to our day, watching the babies enjoying their new goodies. Seeing them explore, play, and turn their new toys into their latest obsession is what it’s all about. ❤️

Happy babies, happy hearts! Thank you to everyone who helps keep our little troublemakers spoiled! ❤️

Today, we had to say goodbye to our sweet Trouble. 💔🌈

Trouble came to us after she became ill and her family wasn’t sure what to do. They brought her to us, hoping we could help. When she arrived, she had very little energy and didn’t want to eat. We took her to the vet, where they discovered a mass in her GI tract with its own blood supply. Unfortunately, because of its location and blood flow, it was ultimately inoperable.

We knew from the beginning that Trouble’s time with us would likely be temporary. But that didn’t make saying goodbye any easier. We did everything we could to make whatever time she had comfortable, happy, and filled with love. ❤️

Trouble loved her soup. She loved wandering around the play area and, perhaps most of all, she loved tunnels. She loved them so much that we put one right inside her cage so she would always have a cozy place to hide and feel safe.

She was a tough little girl. A fighter. And she fought right until the very end.😔

We always wish we could have had more time. We wish we could have fixed what was wrong and given them all the years they deserved. But sometimes, all we can do is make the time they do have count. We can give them comfort. We can give them safety. We can give them full bellies, favorite things, soft places to sleep, and most importantly, we can give them love.

And Trouble knew she was loved. ❤️

Run free, sweet girl. No more pain. No more fighting. Just endless tunnels, endless soupies, and all the freedom you could ever want. 🌈💔

"Her strength knows no bounds,
She overcomes, she perseveres, she astounds.
She is a warrior, a queen, a friend.
Her love and compassion knows no end."
— Oscar Auliq-Ice

🚨THIS is what the aftermath of a low blood sugar episode can look like in a ferret.🚨

Our Superhero Sully had a scary low tonight. 😔

Sully has never been the most active ferret, so at first, him laying around didn't necessarily seem unusual. But then I offered him some soup… and he didn't want it.

A big boy who normally loves his food suddenly refusing to eat? 🚩

We immediately checked his blood sugar. 34.😬

For reference, we generally want a ferret's blood glucose to be roughly 70–120 mg/dL. A reading of 34 is dangerously low and can quickly become an emergency. We immediately started our insulinoma protocol.

We first used Furovite to help bring his blood sugar up. We then offered him an easily digestible, high-protein food to help provide a source of nutrition and support more stable blood sugar. We had our soup already available, but Carnivore Care is another option we commonly keep on hand. We then started him on prednisolone.

💡How does prednisolone help a ferret with insulinoma?

With insulinoma, abnormal pancreatic cells produce too much insulin. Insulin tells the body to take glucose out of the bloodstream, so excessive insulin can cause blood sugar to drop dangerously low.

Prednisolone can help increase blood glucose and counteract the effects of excessive insulin, which is why it is commonly used as part of medical management for ferrets with insulinoma.

When glucose drops too low, the brain and body aren't getting the fuel they need. A ferret may develop:

🐾 Weakness, especially in the hind legs
🐾 Lethargy or unusual sleepiness
🐾 Drooling
🐾 Nausea or pawing at the mouth
🐾 Staring or appearing "out of it"
🐾 Tremors
🐾 Seizures
🐾 Collapse
🐾 And in severe cases, death😔

The goal is to recognize those subtle changes before a low becomes a life-threatening crisis.

Sully is a perfect example of why knowing your ferret's normal behavior matters. His biggest warning sign tonight wasn't extreme, like a seizure.

His first blood glucose was 34. After treatment, his repeat was 46. That's still too low, but it is at least moving in the right direction. ❤️

We're continuing to monitor him closely while we work to get him stabilized.

⚠️ PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO RECREATE THIS PROTOCOL AT HOME.

We are sharing this for education and awareness, not as a DIY treatment guide.

We are a rescue that cares for a large number of medically complicated ferrets, and we work closely with our veterinarian to manage these babies. We have experience recognizing and responding to emergencies, but we are not veterinarians.

Medication choices, dosages, blood glucose monitoring, laboratory work, treatment adjustments, and follow-up care need to be determined by a veterinarian who is familiar with ferrets and exotic medicine.

If your ferret has insulinoma—or you suspect something is wrong—please have a conversation with your veterinarian about what YOUR emergency plan should look like before you ever need it.

Knowing what is normal for your ferret can make all the difference.

Tonight, Sully's refusal to eat was our warning.

❤️ Please keep our big boy in your thoughts and prayers while we continue monitoring him and working to get that sugar stabilized.

And Sully… dude.… you had ONE job tonight: eat your soup!!! 😂❤️

💰IT’S $3 THURSDAY!!!💰

GROG HAS AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!! 📢

Did you know that for the low, low price of just $3, you can purchase Grog’s FAVORITE treat from PetSmart … TWO CHICKEN NECKS!!! 🐔

Grog would like to respectfully ask that you support his very important cause by purchasing AS MANY CHICKEN NECKS AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE.🤣🤣

Because, according to Grog, there is absolutely no such thing as too many chicken necks.

In fact, he has volunteered to personally make sure that EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. gets eaten. 😈

So please… donate $3, buy some chicken necks, and help fund Grog’s completely legitimate and definitely-not-suspicious chicken neck acquisition operation.

Grog thanks you for your support.

Cue evil laugh…
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!😂😂😂

🥹❤️ A HUGE thank you to Rachel! ❤️🥹

Over the last week, Rachel has been spoiling the Fluffy Farms babies with not only food and goodies, but with some very specific baby-approved requests! 😂❤️

She sent minnows specifically for Tai Lung (because we all know about his minnow addiction🤣), some new babies for Zoro, some chicken breast for our chunky Nina girl AND an awesome new toy for everyone to enjoy! ❤️

It means so much when someone not only helps with the day-to-day needs of the rescue, but takes the time to know the babies and what makes each of them happy. ❤️

Thank you so much, Rachel, for taking such wonderful care of our babies and helping keep their little bellies full and them happily cracking out!!! We appreciate you more than you know! ❤️❤️❤️

Crash certainly lives up to his name!🤣
