Is it safe to give both a melatonin implant and a 4-month 1.0 mg Lupron Depot shot at the same time? Trinny is on both, but her first round of each were given...
I have been a lurker on this board for quite some time and have learned quite a bit from the various posts that have been exceptionally useful in caring for...
Hi all, In a shelter enviroment as part of my every morning every evening, I use from 2 to 10 feeding syringes (no needles attached) ranging in size from 1.0...
Hi Jeff, I have had both lupron and melatonin implants administered to my kids at the same time for a few years now with no problems at all. Best wishes to...
... No, it isn't too recent. It's from when she was spayed at the farm. And she is supposedly just over 9 weeks old. ... how hard is it, does it change as the...

A starting umbilical hernia will change as the ferret breathes and isn't hard like that. To repair one they do a little incision -- just one stitch worth in a...
Consumer Labs regularly checks supplements to t find out if they contain what they claim to contain and don't contain what they should not. This time they...
As some might remember, I posted about Nina in the past and how she was diagnosed with pretty bad, metastasized, calcified tumors (over 20+ all over her...
I was told by 2 vets that you can't mix Meloxicam (which isn't it the same as Meticam?),and Prednisolone. My 4 yr old girl has squamous cell carcinoma in her...
Hi all, Our little girl, April is spending the night at our emergency vet's ICU. This evening (or I guess last night now)she was sleeping with her sister....
I hand wash mine in hot soapy water with the following technique - pull up hot soapy water in syringe, push plunger back in to push the soapy water out - I do...
I think it's pretty likely that she's got AV block, possibly even complete or 3rd degree, which the EKG will show. My ferret Cricket made a *full* recovery...
Hi Diane: I'm sure that you go thru a lot more syringes than us (we have 6 ferrets, 2 currently on meds), but what I do is buy 'cheap' syringes (see link below...
Consider A/V Heart Node Block. It has a tendency to go hand in hand with insulinoma Low blood glucose levels are hypothesized as a cause or as a worsening...
It probably would be a good idea to check the volume with inexpensive syringes by measuring with a trusted syringe and then seeing if that amount of fluid...
Metacam & pred do not mix. The buprenex should be controlling her pain, for the most part. I`m not sure why your vet would have added Metacam. Buprenex is...
Hi Pam, Thanks so much for the info! A level 3 block was confirmed by our cardiologist. He wasn't very optimistic about use of theophylline so it is good to...
Thanks, Sukie… that is exactly what they have diagnosed her with. She has a complete block (level 3). The cardiologist says that the only real treatment...
Well, the 9 months we got with Aminophylline is not bad at all and they were quality months, too, despite a Complete. Since then Theophylline is used more...
I really do NOT know which, if any, of the tips given for cleaning syringes are safe, which may pose chemical burn risks (which worries me when bleach is...
As I mentioned in my original post, we do know that some of the meds we aren't supposed to mix, but we are doing it anyway. We have been doing it for 6 weeks...
I use dishwashing liquid with a bit of bleach in the wash water, and a very small bottle brush (I get them at Pottery Barn). I also use a pipe cleaner (which I...
It was actually a quite interesting and informative discussion. The cardiologist described the implant as much more stable in ferrets than in dogs due to the...
I get mine at the vet. Everytime I get a new med he gives me a couple. then I throw them out after. I wouldn't use bleach, or alcohol as bleach and alcohol can...
I always rinse right away and then soak them in a bowl of hot water with dishsoap. Then a few hours later I come and rinse them. The only issue with this is...
Thank you for posting, Patti. I learned a lot from your post. It makes sense that some things would eat at the plastic, especially things that are caustic. I...
I'd worry about that. Vinegar is acidic, and some plastics do leach pseudoestrogens so unless someone who knows more like one of our chemist members, or lab...
Besides using hot water, I will rinse the syringes through with vinegar or a 50/50 vinegar mix. It is not harmful to the ferrets as long as you aren't making...
