Does anyone else's ferret shiver/tremble/vibrate?  Mine do occasionally
and I'm not sure why.  It seems to happen when I pick them up after
they've been sleeping and carry them to a new place to explore.  I don't
think it's because they are cold, because I'm comfortable in a T-shirt
(and they've got a fur coat).  Are they scared?  After a minute or two,
they get over it and begin to investigate.
 
Does anyone else's ferret hack/sneeze/gasp?  Mine do occasionally and
I'm not sure why.  It seems to happen randomly.  Is it the fur-in-the-
throat thing, like cats get (hairball)?  Should I get the Laxatone that
someone suggested?  It doesn't seem like they stop breathing and they go
right on playing afterwords.
