I know that a ferret with ECE can shead the virus for over a year.
Sprout had ECE but he passed away from a cyctic liver. How long can
we have ECE in our house? I would assume that after a good cleaning
we would not have to worry about it.

Thanks

If your little one is having trouble with eating Bobs cg or chicken
baby food, try to make your own, its easy and she'll do better heres
what I do for my kids:

In a sealable container:
2 1/2  cups whatever kibble they are eating
4 cups water
2tblsp ferretone

This is a standard recipe, but if I have a sickie, I add 1/2 can of
A/D from the vets office. When you soak this mixture over night, and it
gets real soggy, you can take a mixer and beat it to make it smooth. I
get my kids used to eating soup right away so that if they are sick, it
is easier to feed them. I learned that the hard way after I had seven
get sick at the same time and nobody was used to soup. I wore soup etc
for days. hope it helps
