Subject: Re: Not eating --- Looking very skinny
I have seen her drink some water from a bowl own her own. I will try
to get some more fluids in her. Her poop is smaller and much less
often then usual. It does not have the regular tube looking shape. It
it looks like a slymmy blob. This morning it was of a light brown
color, but right now it is turning dark, dark brown. She has started
to vomit more too.

Her weight lose and the vomitting can be just a coincidence with the
changes you did these symptoms have a blockage sound to it when my
Vex had a blockage he would not eat, he would toss his cookies and
not eat just the presence of food would cause him to gag. Is she
dehydrated? This is very important to keep and eye on due to a ferret
system will crash without hydration with their metabolism. Please do
not hesitate on taking her to emergency even to get fluids, if you
are unable to administer them yourself time is of the essence and
ferrets need emergency care if the symptoms are servere like
consisted throwing up, and not eating!!!
PS Another question ...how big is her poops average, small, normal?
Repeating question Is she drinking water?
Sincerely Vex

Yes, she started vomiting today. Her stool is not green at all, it is
a
bright brown and very loose and watery. She does not paw at he mouth
but instead she rubs her mouth on any surface she can. When ever I try
to give her food she looks like she is gaging.
I'll be taking her to the vet tomorrow, since today Sunday they are not
open.
