I recently bought two ferrets, one turned out to be a boy and by the look of his teeth, much older than 2. I came home today to find diarrhea all over the cage, very mucusy and runny from him. He was okay the past two days walking around and his poops were fine. Now he's all curled up in the sack not doing much but sleeping and pooping. I can't get out to the vets until Tuesday and I'm extremely worried for him.
I've blocked off half the cage so the other 3 don't pester him and sleep on him. Given him plenty of water both bowl and bottle, food and fresh litter. Has anyone had any experience with this? I'm very worried for him and my husband as they have grown very fond of each other over the course of 4 days.
