Sometime ago, some of you may remember my question about coughing
ferrets....well, to date, Foster, a year(?)old male rescue of probable MF
descent still has these coughing fits.  If anyone has ever heard the heavy
honking of an asthmatic it is very similar.  If I place him in a small
dressing area with a warm vaporizer going, his breathing improves
substantially, but only temporarily.  We have completed a regimen of
antibiotics with no effect....I don't know what conditions he was kept in
prior to my obtaining him several mos.  ago.  These fits can occur upto
several times a day and sometimes not for two weeks.  Anyone with clues out
there?????????
 
best wishes,
