Howdy Ferret folks, I am in serious trouble here, and need your help. This will be a long one, so bear with me. Last Monday, Quasimoto, my 4YO MF sable, went in to the vets for his Rabies (IMRAB) shot. No reaction was seen. On Tuesday he received his distemper (Ferrvac) shot, again with no reaction. While we were in the office, Quasi consumed a large quantity of F:IVD Vetrinary formula feline treats. On Thursday Quasi came down with green slime poops. This is a ferret that has not had contact with any other animal or ferret. I know for sure he was exposed to ECE as a kit, but never contracted it. The vet does not know what to do. He has been sick for 6 days now. At first we thought it was a delayed reaction to the shots, or an upset tummy due to the strange treats. It has now gone on too long for that. We are keeping him hydrated with 20 cc's of water every 2 hours. This is given from the finger or gently with a needleless syringe. Every four hours he is given chicken baby food from the finger, in small amounts. On Monday he vomited for the 1 and only time after being fed. He also urinated on my lap, this is UNHEARD OF for this little guy. The vet has us giving him 5 mil of Pepto Bismol 2x per day, but otherwise is at a loss as to what to do. She is trying desperately to keep the cost down as we were both just layed off, and she is part of a corp (VCA), so she cannot run an account. HELP. I am sitting here with a little guy that has been sick for 6 days, and is grinding his teeth (I know that means discomfort or nausea). This poor guy is wrapped in a towel in our laps, and he has NEVER liked to be held. His little eyes are barely open. We are scared to death. We will do anything we can to save Quasi, but need a place to start, we just can't afford to do any random tests. Any ideas? We live in DE on the MD/DE line. We are considering driving him down to Dr. Williams if we have to. Does anyone have a vet near us that is great with ferrets. Please help us save our son.
