mike1458 14 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Has anyone got any idea of why a ferret would get a bloated belly. I have heard about the twisted intestines etc but I'm wondering if any one else has experienced any other causes? Mike Quote Link to post

ferret100 47 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Is the belly soft to touch or hard? Quote Link to post
mike1458 14 Posted September 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 Ferret absolutely fine now guys. It was hard to touch. It's only this years kitt, so no chance of pregnancy or post pregnancy fatness. I'm just putting it down to a bit of wind I guess. and wasn't dry food. Was rabbit. Mike Quote Link to post
