If your Cinnamon Mitt Ferret has a love for adventure then you should especially keep an eye on him as he will most likely have a love for injuries too. Ferrets are playful creatures that love to move and be on the go. Their curiosity; however, can sometimes get them in trouble. It’s common for Cinnamon Mitt ferrets to have damage to their eyes from fighting with other ferrets or getting into fights with cats. If you notice your ferret’s eyes are irritated, call your vet. Ferrets are also susceptible to various eye conditions including cataracts. Although cataract removal surgery is available for ferrets, most owners turn down the operation due to health risks for the ferret and cost of surgery. Glaucoma is also common in ferrets. The disease can cause blindness in ferrets and usually affects both eyes. It is not known if glaucoma is genetic. For more information about your ferret’s eye health, contact your vet Poway, CA or set an appointment at this website Carmel Mountain Ranch Veterinary Hospital.
