Often when my ferrets are ill or recovering from
surgery they won't eat a lot at a time. If her nose
is stuffy, it may be affecting her appetite too.
Usually I'll just increase the frequency of the
feedings. Like Mike, I usually give forced
confinement for a while too. She had major surgery so
I'm not too surprised that her recovery is taking a
while. It never hurts to discuss this with your vet
too.
