Subject: Queasy Stomach Question
To: ferrethealth@smartgroups.com
Message-ID: <3FCA92CF.49877547@rscs.net>

I have a friend whose 5 1/2 year old ferret has (and always has had) a
queasy stomach. He loves duck soup and treats, but immediately after
eating them will vomit profusely for a few minutes. She is wondering
what she can do for him as he ages -- and especially in the event he
becomes sick, or begins losing weight. The only thing he has ever been
able to keep down is his kibble and ferretone.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to keep weight on an elderly ferret
with a highly sensitive stomach? Your input would be appreciated, as I
have never come across this before in any of my ferrets or the shelter
ferrets here and I'd like some ideas in the event we do get one in.

Thanks,
Stephanie
