There's a really brutal ferret virus called ECE and, once infected, ferrets can become lifelong carriers. It turns out that one or both of my rescue ferrets is a carrier. Two of my ferrets, Fox and Yuri, were sleepy yesterday and, a mere 4 hours later, they had bloody poos and wouldn't eat or move. Mischa would eat and then throw up. They went to the emergency vet last night were given a bunch of medication and subcutaneous fluid. Mischa is doing a little better. Fox and Yuri aren't. I can get them to drink a little and have crammed a little food in their tummies but... no change from last night.
I can't lose my babies. I've raised them from tiny kits and I don't know what I'll do without them.
