Subject: Re: Super Sneezes... Are they a problem?
In December, one of my ferrets started having these sneezing fits.
It was quite infrequent at first but then I noticed it was happening
more often.
Soon after, a few others in the group began to experience the same
sneezing fits.
Turned out to be the flu. We just made sure they were hydrated and
eating regular meals of baby food in addition to their regular
diet. It took about 3 weeks to pass through the group.
If it persists, perhaps consider allergies. Although I am unaware
of the exact drug(s), I am aware of one ferret who was being given
an aerosol spray, similar to an inhaler, and the owner stated that
it was quite helpful.
The only other possibility I can think of is a hidden dust bunny and
if any animal can find one, it would be a ferret!
