Is there anything we can do to help him when he is having one of his
'episodes' of scrunching his whole neck up and sticking his head out?
I wish we could just give him a muscle relaxant or something.

Also, do you know any way that he can be in the main cage at night
with all the other ferrets, but not eat the kibble? Any tricks I can
devise?

How will I know if he is managing ok...he hasn't aspired so far and is
on Clavamox and Baytril. Also I think we are switching him off
Prednisolone to Diazoxide....has anyone heard of this?
