Minion is almost his old self again. Today is the last scheduled day for his medicines, and he’s been eating (and going potty) more often. He’s also been much more active, leading to a medium-length play session last night with Jack and Ysabell. He still seems more loving on occasion, willing to just sit in our arms at times rather than struggling desperately to get down so he can PLAY!, but that might just be residual fatigue or something. Affection (aside from the “your ankles taste good” sort) isn’t something we really expect from the ferrets, after all.
We still have to watch him for a while to make sure he continues to eat and swallow without difficulties, but we’re immensely relieved that he’s doing so well thus far. We’ll probably move him back in with Jack and Ysabell this weekend sometime, I’m sure they’ll be happy to have full run of the cage once again, and he’ll enjoy the company.
Thanks to everyone who inquired about how he was doing as all this was going on!
