Hi,
This may be me overreating but my little Cinnamon seems to have a problem.
She was walking up the stairs in her cage when she froze and went to the
bathroom. Her poop was a very very slimy and yellow. It is unusual in
the consistency but also she couldn't even make it to her litter box. I
am paranoid about ECE although it is commonly green slime right? I will
wait until tomorrow to call my vet but I am worried becuase it is the long
weekend and I may not be able to get to her... If she continues to have
poop like that, and I can't get to a vet, I read that she should be given
something like Pedialyte to get fluids into her. Is this correct info?
Also, I have another ferret. Should I remove him from the cage if she is
continuing to poop like that? I need some very quick information. PLEASE
PLEASE HELP! I don't know what to do. Also, some facts: she is almost 7
months old, about a pound and a half, fixed. Continues to be very active
and she has had all her shots. I'm not sure if she is eating and drinking
lik e normal because I have been away this week and my parents were taking
care of her. If you can help, reply to me personally.
A very worried,
Lisa
