I had a ferret that ran a high temperature for several
days and was very lethargic when he got influenza. He
could walk when he had to walk, but mostly just slept
for several days until it ran its course. He was the
only one of my ferrets, or humans for that matter,
that got it. I'm not a vet so I can't say if that's
the case with Gremlin. It is the flu season though,
so it might be an option to consider especially if
humans have had the flu lately.
