We have a 7 week old kit.  Well the baby threw up 3 nights ago three times.
We are guessing it was the baby, but we had Sabrina also in the cage.  This
night we gave her moistened ferret food, before also and she did fine.
Been feeding Gerber Meats/ground ferret food and Similac.  I had to hand
feed her in the day or she would not eat.  So now I am confused on what can
be going on.  One minute the moistened ferret food is fine and two days
later it's not.  If she throws up again do you think I should take her to
the vets?  We have had her about 12 days now.  Otherwise, she is doing
fine.  She still doesn't have many teeth yet.
 
Today I played with her twice and the last time for over an hour.  She
isn't acting like she is sick at all.  She eats alittle in the day, but not
as much as the other kits did.  Still think she is younger then expected
and if she is young I think kits can only eat so much.  She does always eat
at night.  She has never had diarahea.  Seedy poop, but that's because we
are feeding different Gerber foods.  She is not dehydrated per my scruff
test.
 
With blockages I read they don't eat anything and if they do they threw it
up.  Plus they don't want to play or drink.  She really isn't acting odd.
Any suggestions would be great.  If she wasn't eating/drinking or pooping
then I probably would think something is real wrong.
