If you have lost a ferret to this condition, you know
how painful it is to watch an often otherwise
perfectly healthy ferret fade into a shadow of their
former self.
Symptoms often include bringing up partially or
undigested kibble, loss of appetite and progressive
weight loss. When they eat, they often make gurgling
and squirting sounds.
If you currently have or have had a ferret diagnosed
with Megaesophagus or recognize these symptoms in one
of your ferrets, please email me at the above address.
Thank you!
