Subject: Help with stinky poop
Message-ID: <ENEEJMNBHCJKCHHNGNDDCENICNAA.queenbee@gainbroadband.com>
ANY advice will be welcomed. I took in a female ferret that had been left in
an apartment and was starving when found. She has returned to good health,
in spite of being fed Purina Kitten Chow. However, her poops are frequent,
very tiny- thin, like a short piece of string, and really stink! It smells
up the whole room, rather like very stinky dog poop. I am changing her to
TF, gave her some Benebac. It could be that's she's not descented (no
tattoos) but I have dealt with some others, male and female, that weren't
descented and they were no problem. Any ideas to improve the situation??
