If she is Petco she is a Marshall's, very likey...unless she was relinquished there. She looks exactly like my Maisey, same coat and they were feeding her MILK when I got her, so now I see where the rough coat/ bad diet comes in. I think. So glad she came to you, it always amazes me how easy it is to find proper diet online for an animal, and still people make these grave errors:( You all are great people and I am glad to be able to read through these different situations and see the sucesses and positive things going on with your pets:)

A gerbil no more! Today she ate duck hearts cut into quarters and similar sized hunks of quail with bone! She handled the bone like a champ. A little bit of gagging at first, but she figured out what to do and plowed right ahead.
In other news, she and Fierra have their relationship all figured out and have been caught sleeping together a number of times. Yay!

Oh, most excellent! Katrinka has not only figured out how to eat like a ferret, but now has a new friend as well

She's dragging out the transition to raw. The meat chunks (1/2" cubes now) must be coated in the mush. Plain raw is still unrecognizable/undesired. The big baby. I could probably force the issue a bit at this point, but I guess I don't mind indulging her for a while more. She's eating bone and organs and anything else as long as there's a coating of mush. And true to ferret form she takes her last chunk of meat and stashes it under the desk. Which the cat watches and promptly goes and eats.
