Well, the Green Diarrhea is still around, but so are the Ferrets!!!
They are still not up to par, but have been a bit more active.  Zuki
appears a lot more energetic, but I think the sickness still has her
streesed as she continues to shake/shiver when she is handled.  Scooter
still doesn't like to be handled much and just wants to crawl under the
bed and sleep most of the time.  But he is drinking some on his own and
eats small amounts (better than eating nothing at all).
 
Strange part about Scooter is he won't eat from a dish or tray, JUST
from my hand.  I can place a dish of baby food in front of him and he'll
sniff it and walk away.  If I put some on my finger and offer it to hom
he'll slurp it down.  Even if I continue to move my finger towards the
food dish and then remove my finger, he'll just sniff the dish and walk
away.
 
Outside of some finickiness towards food, he LOVES his NutriCal.  He'll
eat as much of it as I offer, never getting tired of it.  Anyone have
any recommendations on how much of the NutriCal he should get per day?
 
Bandit (the alleged carrier of the GDD) has doubled in size in just two
weeks.  He is nuttier and more energetic than ever.  Just found out he
likes car rides (even left me a present last time - poop on the
dashboard!).
 
We go to the Vet Saturday morning to get Scooter and Zuki checked again,
so I'll be back in a few days to let you know what their status is.
 
Thanks again to all for your concern and suggestions.  You have all been
my sanity through these tough times.  I can tell everyone how great
they've been.  People say it takes a very warm and special person to own
and care for a Ferret, and all of you have proven that time and time
again!
