When my little foster girl was sick and I had to "persausivelly feed her" (my vet's preferred vocabulary), I found that wrapping her up in a towel with only her little head sticking out was the best method for me. What's got me was that this little sick ferret who could hardly lift her head turned into superferret when it came time for feeding. Anyway, she recovered, ceased hating me after a couple of days, and found a new mommy a few months later. Holly Rascal & TJ PS. Our shelter just got in 13! ferrets from one lady, OUCH! I'll be taking in one of those and a I'm picking one up from Animal Control today, bringing my foster count back up to the usual two. My guys just aren't the same when I don't have a foster or two.
