I dont think its a case of scaring people, owners do need to be aware of these things.
Its all about educating, it may save a ferrets life.
Aplastic aneamia/ovarian tumours are far more likely to kill than being spayed.
most owners do get worried well their beloved pet goes for an op, try not to worry im sure the vet is experienced, i have ferrets neutered virtually every week so i supose i dont really worry now, without that sounding callous.
Vets will only spay a certain length of time after a jill jab but as she has had her 'phantom litter' i will say you had her jill jabbed 4 weeks ago?? therfore they are safe to spay
