Subject: Re: Respiratory problems
We had a weird respiratory thing go through our house a month or so
ago. Each ferret, in turn, went through it, but none were at the
same time. It was as if they stood in line and passed it along to
each other. There would be sneezing fits (25-30 sneezes in a row)
and periods of wheezing. I would give the wheezer a little bit of
Benadryl (about 0.8 to 1.0ml) and it would help. This one would go
through this for a day or so, get better, and the next one would
start. It was totally bizarre. I think they're all through it now.
