yoty141 0 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 hi i bought two hob ferrets last weekend and one of them doesnt sound to good it sounds as if one of them got a cold hes wheezing when sleeping and sounds like hes sneezing he shivers quite a lot aswell, any help and advice would be appreciated thanks yoty141 Quote Link to post
Guest bigredbusa Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 a cold is not good for a ferret , maybe a trip to the vets should be in order Quote Link to post

wabbithunter_15 0 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 bring him inside at least if your not taking him to a vets and warm him up slowly , make sure hes drinkin lots of fluid and encourage him to eat. But if you can get him to a vets Quote Link to post
