Hi,
A friend has brought me her ferret saying that the "big brother ferret" wasn't letting this little girl eat when in the cage. The two of them would get out, play, and then she (my friend) would put them back in and think everything was fine. Cheetah (the little girl) has pale gums, is way too thin, has drank over 1 cup of water in less than 18 hours, is grinding her teeth, and eating just about everything we put in front of her. The nearest ferret knowedgeable vet is one hour away. I am terribly worried about Cheetah, and would appreciate your help.
Thanks

Norma
