Hi, and thank you for the information! I'm scared to death to give them
anything, but it does sound interesting. The part about making sure to give
the Vetasyl with clear fluids. What if they eat right after injesting it?
Won't that have a detrimental effect, just like feeding it to them with
something solid?

Also, 6oz is a LOT to give a ferret at one time. I don't think my kidz will
eat or drink that much, especially the little ones. Is there an exact
dosage for ferrets since they have such a small stomach?
