Ferret euthanasia guilt
2025.01.19 09:00 TimelyClimate4888 Ferret euthanasia guilt
 | I honestly don’t really know how to start this but I’ve had my pet ferret since 11/1/18. Her birthday is 08/26/18 and she was originally my little brother’s pet ferret. Don’t shame him when I say this, but he was very young and decided after a year he didn’t want her, he thought she “couldn’t be trained” but I knew with proper care, she could be. I kept her until 08/20 when I had to go to college, I immediately got her an emotional support animal certification through a therapist and had her in my dorm after 10/31/2020 and I’ve had her since. She has thrived with me and met many people since then. She loves running around and making friends and, of course, stealing things and hiding them. As of November 2024 I noticed her health declining, she was only 6, but her activity level rapidly decreased and her appetite did as well. I immediately took her to the vet and I knew the commodity of insulinoma so I fasted her for 8 hours and she had normal tests. She had no signs of adrenal gland disease so they assumed she had lymphoma of the brain, as her vision was also going bad with no cause or signs of cataracts. They prescribed her with prednisone (steroids) which act as a chemotherapeutic form of medicine for ferrets. She seemed to get better for a week but after that, she plateaued. She started losing fur and the vet seems to think that she had a combination of insulinoma that was disguised by adrenal gland disease and now that she’s on steroids, the adrenal gland disease is coming up. However, the blood test for adrenal gland disease is minimum $250 and it’s hard to get from a normal sized ferret, let alone a normally petite and now skin and bone ferret, and the surgery to place an implant is $250-500. I know that her quality of life will never be the same after surgery and with her having insulinoma and adrenal gland disease, it’s hard to believe she made it this far. In the past 2 weeks, even with the steroid, she has lost almost all of her fur, she shivers constantly, (from being cold and having no fur), she has no energy, (she sleeps ALL the time), she can’t lift the things she used to, (taking my crocs and hiding them), she doesn’t care what I do to her, (clipping her claws used to be near death and now she doesn’t care), and she doesn’t want to eat or drink. I feel so guilty for not giving her the life that I feel she deserved even though she had a 3 story cage and got to run around all the time Inside and outside. I know that it’s for the best to euthanize her, because after nearly 6 1/2 years of knowing her, I know that she would hate a minimalized type of lifestyle for her standards. However, I cannot help but feel an extreme amount of guilt for what I should have/could have done for her. She has a million toys, got to play with a million dogs and cats (she hated other ferrets), she got to play in the snow, grass, dirt, sand, etc. My question is, how do you get over the guilt of what you should’ve/could’ve done? I just feel terrible and I don’t know what to do. I know this is all for the best but I just feel so much guilt. submitted by TimelyClimate4888 to ferrets [link] [comments] |

2025.01.19 09:00 Puzzleheaded-Cost226 Advice for dog that doesn't want to eat
My dog recently got diagnosed with blood parasite. She doesn't want to eat anything even though she's showing signs of hunger (like throwing up yellow substance). She drinks a lot of water with dextrose powder though. Any advice for me?
She has to eat something because one of her medications is an antibiotic which requires her stomach to be full.
