I woke up this morning and went in the bathroon to get ny two ferrets as usual. The boy, Cassidy, who is a little over 2 was laying in his bed staring at me. This is not that unusual for him. I noticed that the food bowl was empty so I filled it up expecting Cassidy to come out to eat. I picked him up and he started pawing at his mouth and drooling all over himself. I gave him some ferretone and he licked it, then I gave him a piece of food. He started to chew it and just fell over on his side. It looked like he was dead but he was still breathing. After a couple of seconds he was fine and went to the bowl and ate like crazy. On Saturday he had a similar episode of pawing at the but I had just mopped the floor and his breath seemed to smell a little like blaech so I thought he had licked some which he has never done before. I called the vet and he said to give him water and he should be fine. Looking back, I don't think he licked any bleach off the floor because he never even goes into the kitchen because he would rather be on the carpet where it is easier to walk. I am taking him this afternoon to have his blood sugar checked. Has anyone else had a similar experience or know what could be wrong. I know a little about insulinoma but I am praying that it is not that. Thanks, Melanie Melanie A. Hough [Posted in FML issue 2108]
