Those long rascals that have skinny bodies allowing them to stuff themselves into holes.
Here are some illnesses and treatments(most of these illnesses are quite common
Diarrhea
You can tell if your ferret has diarrhea if it's stool are loose and look watery.
Feeding your ferret a sudden change of diet might be one cause,because a ferret can't adjust
its eating diet to a new food with a snap.
The treatment:keep your ferret diet regular and feed it new food slowly.Others depend on the type of cause for diarrhea.
Low Blood sugar
Abnormally low blood concentration of glucose, or sugar—basically, the opposite of diabetes. It’s caused by excess insulin or insulin-like factors (e.g., insulinoma or an overdose of insulin administered medically). Because glucose is a main energy of source in an animal's body, a low amount will result in a severe decrease in energy levels, possibly to the point of loss of consciousness.Some symptoms are unsteadiness,muscle twitching,exercise intolerance,nausea, with excessive salivation and pawing at the mouth,posterior partial paralysis,stargazing (i.e., head abnormally angled toward the sky),abnormal behavior (e.g., depression, lethargy, and general stupor)collapse,seizures (rare)
Treatment:YOU CAN'T HANDLE THIS ON YOUR OWN GET IT TO A VET IMMEDIATELY
Vomiting
Vomiting may be brought on by neurological issues, adverse drug reactions, or motion sickness. Various metabolic or bacterial toxins or inner ear imbalance will also trigger vomiting.You can see if there's some kind of mucus on it's stool,it's hacking or coughing or you just see it puking right there
Treatment:You can't change it's diet and don't stress it out.Keep it away from raw meat,and take it to a vet
so that's all sorry guys that's all I can think off the top of my head.So you can search up more illnesses if you'd like.
