Time. Ferrets like Cats are sensitive to aspirin so it can be used but this
is something to discuss with your vet. You need to find out what areas are
affected, manage everything else, see if you can reduce the inflammation and
hope the clot breaks down. I have seen them consolidate an area of the lung
whch leads to fluid formation and some work for the heart, so all of these
need to be managed and once that happens often can resolve the symptoms and
the rest of the lung takes over. It can be trickey. I have also seen these
little clots be thrown to brain. Hopefully this is not the case but do get
it checked.
Dr. Sue
