Hi, I have a 1year old female (Bandit) and last Thursday I got a six week old male kit (Smokey). Thursday night Smokey just cried and whined, I thought that was due to him being taken away from his mommy earlier that day. Well, it hasn't gone away and only gotten worse. All he does is cry and whine and when I let him out of his cage ( He is in a seperate cage from the other one) he runs in circles screeching. Smokey will charge to Bandit and try to find her nipple but Bandit justs bites him. I have tried just letting him out when Bandit is caged but all he does is do ccircles at high speed and cries, if I come near him he latches on to my finger or hand and does not let go. He appears to be eating and drinking okay but I am afraid that maybe he was too young to be taken from his mother or that there is something seriously wrong. If anyone has any sugestions or comments, please send me an e-mail right away. I talked to my vet (who is not very familiar with ferrets) and he said this is normal but I never noticed this kind of behavior when Bandit was that small!! They are from Marshall Farms, if that helps. Please help, I feel terrible when he cries and whines, it gets louder when he hears us talking or sees us walking by his cage!!! Thanks for your help!!
