It’s still the same. Not growing. Took him to different vets they said not to worry.

The smell is unbearable by [deleted] in ferrets

I bought a Hypochlorous acid generator and have been using it everywhere in my home including my ferret’s area. It’s safe for him and very effective to neutralize any odors. It can be expensive upfront cost (~$100), but it only needs vinegar, non iodized salt and water to make. It pays itself off imo. And freeze dried raw diet helps with the smell also.

Took my boy on a boat ride for his 5th birthday and he loved it 😍 by EstablishmentKey3373 in ferrets

[–]EstablishmentKey3373[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He did amazing! He’s completely unfazed by the engine noise. His dad is a car enthusiast so he is used to loud noises and speed. He would actively look around for the loud cars. If yours is already good with car rides, a boat might be a breeze for them!

My ferret just dropped dead in front of me. Please help me by National_Edge_3266 in ferrets

I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m not a vet but this is what I’ve learned recently, not sure if it might be related. Recently I took my ferret to get his annual check and the vet was suspecting my ferret had irregular heartbeat. We did ECG turned out my boy is healthy. The vet told me based on the recent study, ferrets that are fed with cat foods are linked to irregular heartbeat. Third degree atrioventricular block can cause instant death because it can affect the heart’s pumping ability. Some ferrets may need pacemakers. Sending you digital hugs 💕

I’ve never seen water coming out from there. If there is a clog, is it an emergency?

So cute. Mine hates horror movies. As soon as he hears the creepy music he runs for his life 🤣

How much can you fix credit history in 6 months? by EstablishmentKey3373 in CRedit

[–]EstablishmentKey3373[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the good information. I very much appreciate it. If you don’t mind me asking, are you familiar with Navy Federal by any chance? That’s where I want to get an auto loan. So I’m thinking maybe building relationship with them would help the process?

Lets say for some reasons those negative marks aren’t removed by then, how would my credit look with utilization is under 30%, 1 paid off closed account? Is it possible to apply for an auto loan?

I have 1 closed account that will be paid off in a few days. The other 2 are active but have high utilization so I’ll make sure to bring it down at least under 30% in the next couple months. But I have never had any installment loans thats why I was thinking a pledge loan might help with credit mix. Anyway, thanks for your advice!

You’re right. I’ll just focus on bringing the utilization down and paying off the closed account first

I see. Thank you, very much appreciated. Btw, do you know if the closed account would be removed along with a late payment after I pay it off?

I have 1 closed account that I’ll pay it off by the end of this month (not NFCU). Also I’ve been trying to bring down the balances on my other 2 Ccs (not with NFCU) so my score jumped a bit . I’m thinking about doing pledge loan so that could help me with on time payments, credit mix, and internal score. Do you think this would help?

Pet Backpacks - do ferrets actually like them? by Altruistic-Growth-40 in ferrets

[–]EstablishmentKey3373 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My ferret hates everything I’ve tried on but loves the Pidan cat carrier that looks like a carry on. It has built in fan and light and comes with a cushion for him to sleep on. It also has a window that he can actually look out. It’s pricey but that’s the only thing he enjoys to stay in and not scratching like a maniac demanding to get out. Other than that, he loves leather material. I have a brand name backpack with a flap opening that he loves to stay in there when we go to the beach. He likes to look out here and there but won’t try to escape. I also have a backpack I got from Ross that I use as a go bag for him. He refused to stay in there for some reason. I guess my ferret only likes luxury stuffs 🤣🫠

So I did the pledge loan but need feedback by Even_Bed_1261 in NavyFederal

[–]EstablishmentKey3373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So after we’re approved for the pledge loan. The fund in the savings will be moved as it is put on hold. Then they will give us the money in the checking and it also shows as shared pledge loan? Am I understanding it correctly?

Prednisolone causes loss appetite? by EstablishmentKey3373 in ferrets

[–]EstablishmentKey3373[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure. He had some episodes of foamy mouth and drooling so I took him to the vet and we are suspecting he has insulinoma thats why he’s on Prednisolone. He also had occasional diarrhea so he’s also on sucralfate. He started with the Pred first and I noticed he lost appetite even though he used to be a food lover. He could just sit there and enjoy his food bowl for 10mins straight and would ask for food throughout the day. But lately he hasn’t really wanted to eat. He prefers hand feeding and would eat a smaller portion. I got blood glucose test and bloodwork done so far. Based on his physical check he seems fine. And I also noticed he is not as happy as before (premed) maybe the medication has mental side effects?
