No, it refers to actual meat baby food. When a ferret is ill and
needs a bland high protein food it is a marvelous way to provide
it -- very easy to digest, very gentle to the GI tract (perfect for
helping a sickintestine heal except if giving a type to which which
an individual ferret might be allergic), etc. A person could get
more complicated, but sometimes there not only is no reason to
do so, but it can be counterproductive to do so. Yes, plain old
meat baby food...
