My ferret has just been diagnosed with adrenal disease and lymphoma. What should I do?
Any advice on how to keep him comfortable until it’s his time? Any advice at all?

This is unfortunately all too common in ferrets. Lots of love and affection is first. Second, you should discuss with your vet weather or not surgery is a good option. It will depend on the stage of the disease. 99% of the time, a ferret is not in pain from these diseases. Nor would they be suffering in any way. If there is any change in eating or drinking habits, give your vet a call. You will notice loss of hair, usually beginning on his tail. So keep an extra towel, fleece, or fabric in his cage to help keep warm. (if necessary). Goodluck.
