It is definitely something I have been looking in to, but she has been this way for months now and the vet has continually told me that she is very healthy. She has had allergy shots and they did not seem to help and also tried an anti-nausea medication. She's had x-rays but not the specific one for megaE.
Most ferret owners have been telling me that rubbing the nose on the floor is normal for wet food, but she does it after eating dry food as well which I thought was a little strange. I am just making sure it is not connected with her throat condition. Thank you for the advice!
