Health monitoring is important

My albino ferret developed adrenal disease at 4 years old — a common condition in ferrets. The vet placed an implant to manage hormone levels and she's been stable for a year. The specialist vet costs were significant. Albinos aren't more prone to health issues than other ferrets, but ferrets in general have a high rate of certain conditions. Budget for specialist veterinary care and monitor your ferret's health closely as they age.
