The only other ferret I've had blow a coat was Carol/Poppy, and she did it her second season.  Alice will be 6 in December, and at the vet office yesterday I got a handful of fur every time I picked her up or scruffed her.  Poppy shed hers over a weekend when I was away, but I'm going to get pics if Alice.  She's truning white in her old age as well.

What does "blowing her coat" mean?  She is so cute.

Hello.  My name is Tammie and I am addicted to fuzzbutts.

Losing large amounts of hair in a short time, down to just the undercoat or almost to the skin.

Yeah, it's basically having her whole shed season in a couple days.  When Carol did it, she was less than a year old.  We went away for a weekend and when we cam home it looked like someone had shaved her.  I don't have any surviving pics of her from that.
