Our ferret snow started sneezing violently suddenly last night.
When I picked her up I noticed the end of a stiff thread sticking out
of her nose (could be a fox tail or hard carpet fiber?). Before I
could grab it the end completely went into her nose. she continued
to sneeze periodically for the next hour and I noticed a tiny drop of
blood coming out of her nose. She also seemed to be hurting whenever
her nose touched anything. Help, What do I do. Should she be scoped
to check to see if it is lodged in her airway?
thanks for all replies.
