About a year ago, Greta started having coughing and wheezing "attacks". I brought her to a vet with limited knowledge of ferrets (for lack of knowing of a vet that knows ferrets) and he said he thought she has asthma. He gave me an antihistamine (Chlorpheniramine?) to give to her when she has a problem breathing. So far it has seemed to work. She only gets these "atttacks" maybe once or twice a month, and when I give her a pill, she gets better right away. I'm just wondering if anyone has heard of this before. Is this diagnosis correct or could it be something else? I guess I shouldn't be too concerned since I seem to have it under control-just curious. (Interestingy, I was just diagnosed with asthma and so far they can't find anything to treat me with that works!) Tuesday night is when "America's Greatest Pets" is on (8:00 central time). I would think it will be loaded with ferret sightings since we all KNOW that ferrets are America's GREATEST pets!!! My eyes will be pealed...
