Plus, the left adrenal showed adenoma, so it too had to be removed. I took her home and again, as with Pepper, went round the clock for the next 48 hours with her. She was also on injectable antibiotics. She was very, very weak and unable to maintain her body temperature, and this was the most difficult part in helping her as I had to constantly adjust the heat pad. She was also too weak to move, and so I had to watch her for any indication she wanted to use the litter box - and hold her so she could.
Miracles do happen.
Tiger Lilly made it past the 48 hours and when I offered her water - she drank. This was a good sign - it meant she was felt like taking something oral. Later that day I had to leave for about 8 hours and so left her with a bowl of food just in case she felt like eating a few pieces. Since then she has been making a speedy recovery and gaining weight steadily - a miracle which I attribute to the care from her vet and her skill as a surgeon. The moral of this cautionary tale is, don't give your ferret veggies.
