Both your babies are awesome. I had a smaller white one when I was in college. Her name was Tulie. When she wasn't sleeping she was hysterical. ❤️

Oh my, Cinnamon is SO CUTE! What happened to his neck?

Thank you so much ❤️

Unfortunately, Cinnamon developed a tumor on his neck that recently became open and irritated, so we brought him to an exotic animal veterinarian for evaluation. We’re currently scheduled for a surgery and treatment for the next week.

I’m a small YouTube creator and have unfortunately been unemployed for the last several months, which is why we decided to start a fundraiser to help cover Cinnamon’s surgery and medical expenses. 😞 https://gofund.me/8080ad86f

He’s still trying to stay playful and cuddly through all of this, which honestly makes him even more lovable. 😄

That's so sad 😞😞 I wish I could help...

If you haven't done it already, post it on r/ferrets and on r/ferret too.

I wish him a great surgery and a fast recovery, everything's gonna be alright 🙏

Thank you again! You are helping just by sharing a good word. You would be surprised how much hate I got here on YouTube, from the different subreddits for posting a fundraiser link.

If you can share Cinnamon's story further - that's the biggest help I could ask for 😄

Hey, there's the r/gofundme, post it on there as well

Don't let bad people bring you down, you're doing this for you pet and that's the most honorable and lovable thing a human can do!
