Answer
Hi Hannah,

I apologize for the delay in answering your question. How is D'weasle doing? Is he any better?

If not, he really needs to be taken to the vet RIGHT AWAY! Those symptoms you listed could mean any number of illnesses. Is his temperature down below around 101 degrees? That is the normal temperature for ferrets : 101 to 103 degrees. If he is above or below that, he really needs to be taken into the doctor right away! That is really the only advice I can offer you as of right now. He needs to see a vet if he hasn't already because those symptoms are extremely dangerous.

If you have any questions, or you are still worried about D'weasle and he hasn't improved, then please don't hesitate to ask.

Sincerely,
Emilee Andrews
