Answer
Hi Karen,
Get some Nutri-Cal or Ferretone.  Nutri-Cal is probably a little better to help with your ferret's appetite loss.  Even if your little ferret only eats off of your finger it's better then her not getting any food at all.  I'd feed her as many times a day as you have time for.  When they are low on weight they tend to eat a lot.  A/D helps them to gain weight but it's Science Diet and a Veterinarian has to prescribe it and in my opinion the baby food helps them gain just has much with the Nutri-cal supplement.
Let me know what else I can help you with.
