A ferret came into the emergency clinic Monday night complaining of vomiting blood. This ferret is *bone* skinny, was throwing up blackish looking blobs and some blood tinged foam. Turns out that this ferret had been fed *rabbit* food its entire life (about 1 year), and the blood was coming from a cut or stomatitis on his tongue. I now have this ferret because they could not afford the vet bill. He has not thrown up once since I've had him, his hydration is now good, his poops look a normal brown, and he is eating A/D and baby food with gusto. My question is: will the year of eating nothing but rabbit food damage his intestines? If so, to what degree? I have not done blood work on him because I expect everything to be out of whack, but will do so in a month or so when he's gained a bit of weight to see where things stand. [Posted in FML issue 3330]
