Swollen Neck And Under The Weather


Recommended Posts

Ive got a 5yr old Jill ferret that has suddenly developed a very large, hard swelling underneath her right cheek.

 

She is noticeably under the weather - loss of appetite and stands still with her eyes closed from time to time.

 

I've put her on some high protein wet food last night but she seems worse today.

 

Any ideas?? I really don't want to prolong her suffering anymore than i have to but if there is a good possibility of her pulling through, I would be grateful to know what can be done.

 

many thanks

Sounds like some kind of infection; particularly with the listlessness.

Have you looked on skin for any bite/cut sore or opened mouth to look for anything.

I'll be honest with there fast metabolism and small size id whack it to the vets sharpish

Did they not give it an antibiotic shot as well?
