Has anyone been having a problem lately with food beung stuck in the roof of their ferrets mouth? I feed a mix of 8 in 1, Totally Ferret and Eukanuba. The Totally Ferret and the 8 in 1 has been getting wedged in the roof of their mouths. I see them struggling and pawing trying to get it out. I open their mouths and stick my finger up and loosen it for them. This seems to be a recent problem only though. In 5 years I never saw Any of them with food stuck until recently. Also. I saw some posts about 8 in 1 supermarket food. It is NOT the same company as 8 in 1 Pet Store Food. 8 in 1 Supermarket brands are a Pet Food and Toy Company. Unfortunately I read the box and the ferret food is not that good. But I would like to say, Even Though people say that its "horrible" Food, Isnt it better that Unknowledgeable Ferret Owners see a ferret on the box and maybe at least switch from Kitten Chow or God Knows what else may be being fed? At least its a "better" food for a ferret that say.. Tender Vittles. I know that Totally Ferret is a Good Food and I also see people bashing 8 in 1 Ultra (pet Store Food). Well Let me just tell You.. My ferrets have been eating 8 in 1 Ultra for Years.. Only somewhat in the past year or so, I started Mixing the food. Woobie will NOT Touch 8 in 1 Ultimate (The Good One) even though its made by the same company. That doesn't mean Im a bad ferret Mommy and My ferrets are happy and Healthy (Except for Woobie, due to cancer running through his whole body, most likely NOT Caused by his 8 in 1) On Another Note.. Woobie is Doing OK. Hes not thriving like he was on the carafate. I think it is not helping him as much as it was in the beginning. Hes still eating, but not as much and is trying to play but gets tired out in like 5 minutes. This morning he was wide awake and hanging out on his sleep sack and as he was sitting there, he let out a little cry. I think he is starting to be in pain.. This may be the beginning of the end. I don't want my little baby to suffer. If any of you don't know. He's a Male Marshalls Ferret, 6 years old, has cancer of the Liver and Spleen and no surgery is recommended due to his age because he will most likely not make it through. He is the first ferret I ever had (I now have 4) He was bought and returned to a pet store by someone who's Grandson was not taking care of him properly, and I bought him because the pet store said I'll give him to you for $50.00 because no one wants and adult ferret. So I grabbed him and he's been loved and spoiled like a baby for the past 5 years.
