Subject: [ferrethealth] Throat problems in Skittles
To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com
My ferret, Skittles, makes a strange raspy sound. The sound seems to be coming from her throat. The vet tried antibiotics and they did not help. I thought maybe there was a blockage, so I tried using ferret lax. No success. I took her to the vet and had x-rays done and blood work, but she seems to be healthy. However, she is having trouble eating (sore throat?) The vet then gave her anti-nausea meds but she is still having difficulty. The vet also tried giving her an allergy shots and allergy meds. She seems very healthy but it is obvious she is uncomfortable when it comes to her throat. What do you think this could be?
I have also tried baby food and she hates it! She also rubs her nose on the ground after she eats which I find a little strange.
