To: ferrethealth@smartgroups.com
Thanks for that. I've tried the steamy bathroom. For how long would you recommend keeping her in there and how often? I'm just wondering when I should start to get worried? Again, she's had symptoms for about 2 weeks now. How she just seems really snuffly and blocked up but so lethargic I've never seen her like this. She is still eating okay but has maybe lost just a little weight over the last 2 weeks. I might at least ring the vet in the morning. It is realistic that she'd still be like this after 2 weeks with the flu? Just don't want to make another unnecessary trip to the vet if I can avoid it, but obviously if I think we need to I will go. Thanks
