I have some questions for you 1. How much taurine supplement should you give if you run out of heart? 2. List 3 sources of edible bone 3. Are gizzards a muscle meat, or an organ? 4. What is a healthy diet item that can be used for hairballs, and his often should you give it? 5. List 3 organs aside from liver.

1)I don't think there's a definite answer as you can't really over do it, but about 300mg per day per ferret is an ok amount. (Though I always have so much heart in it's not likely I'll ever use it!) 2) Mouse, guinea pig and pigeon. 3) Gizzards are classed as muscle meat. 4) egg is good for hairballs and they should have it about once a week. 5) Kidney, pancreas and lung.

Yeah I think I am! Thanks for all your help Sherry, you've been absolutely wonderful and I appreciate you still helping me with George and his IBD. Today is his last day of steroids so we will see what happens now.

Congratulations You've graduated and you're ready to walk this path alone, now . You have the foundation to help you feed your fuzzes in a more natural and healthy manner. Please remember that your learning never stops, and dietary needs change from ferret to ferret and throughout each their lives. I would like you to be aware that though you now have the capability and the knowledge to create your little ones diets you are never alone and that your mentor (you need only pm) is always available to you. The list is also a very good resource and you should always be aware that it's available to answer any questions you may have either about diet or care. Good luck, in a few days either Sherry or I will lock down this thread and place it in the archives but be aware that you can always look through it as a reference tool but you just will not be able to post to it. Your mentor will be in to congratulate you shortly ciao
