Uno, we are not sure of his age. He is back at the vets because I
noticed he is breathing faster at rest, than the other ferrets which I
believe indicates pain or something wrong. She is going to snap an
xray, give pain meds, supportive care, etc and get back to me. His
blood panel came back pretty normal except that his plattlets are low,
his albumium and liver counts are low.

I was giving him baby food gerbers stage 2 turkey. He would lick a
little from a spoon but had to kind of really push it. I did syring
him to eat and at least got a few MLs of food down. I will do whatever
it takes to get him right.
