I had never thought about this before, but would this be a good reason
to train all of our ferrets to accept syringe feedings? We
train them to eat soup so that they will take it willingly when
needed. Why not get them accustomed to syringe feeding when they feel
good so it wouldn't be stressful for either of you if they really need
it?
