How timely. Yes! But last month is the first time in my 13 years of
ferret ownership that my vet prescribed simethicone.

One of my foster children, Bandit, had a terrible digestive upset. My
vet had me use a tiny dose of infant simethicone to remove excess
gas. In conjunction with the antibiotics, she was much improved the
next day.
