Hi M Northern,
2 other things you can try to help increase Bruno's appetite
are using liquid Carafate (1ml or 100mg) about 10 minutes
before feeding him and using an antacid for a few days.
Some ferrets develpo gastritis or ulcers after a major surgery,
so treating with Carafate and Tagamet helps.
Hope that helps,
Jerry Murray, DVM
