I have a 2 1/2 old male who has been pretty healthy since I have had him. I have had him for about a year and half. Beginning today we noticed that he would run from litter box to litter box to try and go the bathroom. He could only go a little bit. And, I do mean very little. When you pick him up he feels warm to the touch also. My questions are--Can you check temperature on a ferret? If so how? with a digital thermometer? What should normal tempeature be? Can you give them anything for a temperature like Children's Tylenol or anything like that? Also, about his not going to the bathroom very much, if they have a blockage do they behave like this or do you have any other suggestions. Thank you for any help you can give me. My baby boy has been healthy and I haven't had to deal with this before so any help would be wonderful.
Thank you
