Hi, I have recently become a pet to a 11week old female fert known to all as
Baba. That being said, I have been her companion for 2 weeks.. and now i'm
worried.. at first she was a plump little thing but now she's growing and
looks a little thin.. I have checked to see she is eating and she is and
she is pooping normally so she can't have an intestinal blockage(i was
woried that may be it in case i hadn't ferretproofed properly). I have also
noticed that her ear wax seems to have gotten right down near her nose.
Well that's what i assume it is. I have cleaned her ears twice since i got
her and she has had 2 baths(once a week).
She also has a smal pimple like thing on her nose except it looks like a
wart on the surface. Are all these things connected? is she sick and i'm
not realising?. I'm taking her to the vet next week for her second
distemper shot shouuld i ask him about it?. OR as ppl have said.. she is
just growing and maybe she has earmites. From what i have read in the faq
from pam greene earmites show black specks from the ear area. Baba on the
other hand has this red/brown speckle stuff (like earwax) on her skin from
her head to nose and around the eyes.. I tryed to wipe it away with warm
water and an ear swab but it persists.
Please.. can somone alay my fears.. cause i'm so ferret crazy i would hate
anything to happen to her.
Thanks };)
