I have spent quite a bit of time in Brasil, and while it's one of my favori=
te places in the world, your post brings to mind some concerns. 1) I know a=
lot of Brasileros have tile floors and pour cleaners over them. Could your=
ferret have gotten into some cleaner that was toxic? 2)Brasilian gardens =
are full of beautiful tropical flowers, but unfortunately many of them are =
poisonous. Could he have eaten anything in the garden?

Also, while he is recovering you may want to get some chicken and boil it a=
nd then put it into a blender or food processor until it is a soup. Vitamin=
a de frango! As he gets better add more and more of his regular food until =
he is completely well.
Boa sorte
