a friend of mine has a ferret who is ill and is bleeding from stool.

but i do not know anything about ferrets, is there someone here around who
could help her???

it is 2am at her place, the ferret is crying and she needs help until she
can bring it to the doctor

How is it bleeding? Is it like a straight liquid blood? Or is there
just blood in the ferrets stool?

phoenix8

what does that mean???

how could that be exagerated?
if my friend saw that he got mager from being ill, then i do not see the
problem here, and the problem is that animal is ill and need help so that
he can survive until the visit to the vet, you have any good suggestion??

thanks

Well, blood in the ferret's stool could be from a lot of things. The
ferret could have ingested something an have internal bleeding, he could
have an ulcer, or multiple other things. Is your friend positive it's
blood in the stool? From my limited experience, blood in the stool
makes it dark and tary-like.

Ultimately your friend needs to take him to a vet, and let them check
him out. Since this has been happening over a few days I wouldn't be so
worried that *I* would run to the emergency vet in the middle of night,
but I would definitely get that poor guy to a vet ASAP, which in the
Germany area is right about now (if your friend is located near you that
is).

What is there to do? You don't know what is causing the problem. If
you knew he ingested something you could give him something to help try
and pass the blockage. Is there a reason your friend hasn't taken the
ferret to the vet already? It's been three days already.

He needs to be seen by a vet. Your friend needs to take a stool sample
with them too.

thanks
how could the blockage pass??
what could she give him, please

Is there a reason your friend hasn't taken the


yes, i also have that question and i am asking it as well.

i just got the answer: my friend wasn't home the last days, she founded it
ill with the blood in the stool in the cage when she came back. the persons
who took care of it apparently didn't see there was a problem, but she saw
that he got very mager from the time she left him.

she is going to take him in her morning which is about 5 hours from now.
but she is worried because he is crying a lot and seems to be having much
pains.

thank you very much
