Well My baby Ike is doing alot better he will now go and play with the others during "free time". But a couple of days ago his life long buddy Eli died in his sleep. I don't know why he was actually my more healthy fuzzy. Now Ike is very depressed but is still eating and playing with his other furry friends Lila and Grimlin. All my fuzzies are on the upper side of 9 years old. I've read that ferrets only live to about 6 years. I'm not complaining by any means but is my babies living this long normal?
Oh, Ike has now lost every single strand of hair on his body!!!!! Yes he shivers all the time. But I do know that he does go into the "death sleep" The first time it happened I was so freaked out! I thought my boy died! It happened about 2 weeks after I brought him home.
