Poor wee thing. Well done for trying, our thoughts are with you xxx

Thanks for support, a couple of days have past and we are much better, will miss Silent Bob but at least he isn't suffering any more..... Any one know how to close a thread? I don't want others to get too upset reading this so would be best if I can close it.

hi you can delete it yourself if you edit your first post and select delete thread then it should close.but there is nothink wrong with your thread so dont worrie

sorry he didnt make it, i managed to miss this thread.

Id be having some serious words with your vets, he should of had the steriod injections at the start plus antibiotics as a precaution, i had a virus over the summer i lost 14 ferrets in just a few weeks, we couldnt work out what it was but when i was losing three in one day as soon as i noticed one losing a bit of weight they went straight on antibiotics, the only ones that survived where the ones on antibiotics immediately, the others wasted to death with pneumonina once it got a hold nothing would work.

YOur vets were very negligent im my opinion.

We took him to two different vets and the lady who found Silent Bob took him to her vet. So three of them never suggested antibiotics or steriods. My husband and I have had ferrets for almost 2 years and all the vets we have had contact with have little or no experience with ferrets. We have had to show the vets how to handle ferrets without gloves as they really don't know anything!!!
