Subject: [ferrethealth] Pregnant Ferret Questions - SOS
To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com
I am fairly new to this group and have been ghosting. I want to thank everyone here for the insight advice and love you all share for our beloved masked friends.
Late last week a pregnant female ferret was brought to my rescue, rhabe, rehome facility. We are not sure how far along she is. Katrina (the ferret)is carrying at least 3 kits that we could feel and see moving in her abdomen. She is eating well so far, having difficulty getting to water bottle (that issue has been fixed) and moves around her cage a bit. She is in the stage where she is very sleepy all the time.
I pick her up and cuddle with her constantly and gently rub her tummy - she seems to like this alot. I just had hand surgery and it is not unusual for you to find Katrina and myself napping together.
My question is how can I guestimate how far along she may be. All of the other ferrets are Marshal fixed and descented.
Any advice would be welcome
