Animal’s human states his ferret has a history of seizures. Due to a near-drowning, this dog has now become a bit more agitated. You meet a friendly dairy cow that will not tolerate tactile milking anymore. Her cat was rescued from a house fire three months ago. She is different! Bunny has cancer. She is preparing to pass. The lion has a wonderful home but continues to pace and lick her front right paw. Her tail looks tucked under her body and her hind legs take short steps. The handler can hug her all he wants, but no one else can safely have physical contact with her.
