Hey, I'm new to the group, and this morning I got up and began to get ready for school. Usually my ferret is up with me but this morning she wasn't in her hammock but sleeping on the ground floor of her cage. I checked her water and food, the food looked untouched. So i woke my ferret up and she couldn't barely hold her head up without it swaying to the left. I held her and got a bowl of water and she drank some. I've been helping her drink because she can't keep her head up long enough to get a drink of water. her head falls into the water. I put her down to get some pedialyte for her and she tried to follow me like usual, but all she could do was stumble to the left. Also, she has a bloody nose. Not very bad, just when she sneezes after trying to get water. I'm taking her to the vet in a little while. But until then does anyone have any idea what it might be?
