yuki sounds like she is chocking

[Deleted]

So yuki has been a little dowb the last month mainly because she put out her winter coat (she is so so so fluffy) and she has been sleeping a lot. Just like waldo did who now starts to wake up a little hit after three mobths of winter coma. They have their seasons upside down.
Anyways, I noticed a couple of days ago that yuki had this little shuddering wheb walkinh like she was trying to swallow something that was stuck in her throat. It looked to me like she had a sore throat or something. Yesterday I heard her do this spittig chocking sound and today too. I gave ger vaseline which seemed to help a littke. She coughed more. Hopefully she will spit what she swallowed or pass it through.

Now the past week her poop have beeb a littke watery. One day they were watery and completely undisteted kimble. The next were fine. Then watery again. And today they were this jelly like yellowish kind. That scares me a lot. I don't know if its stress becaude she changed seasons or not or if she is sick?
Like I said her poop are off the past week. She eats like she used to - no changes there and she is drinking water as well same as before too.

Any ideas on what I can do for her? Or if it is something more serious?

Thank you.

You need to take your ferret to a vet, the sooner the better. Do not give vaseline unless you think she's got a blockage, if that's possible, then again, vetting asap. Vaseline coats the digestive tract preventing absorption of nutrients. Any time a ferret starts getting lethargic, shows litter box issues (watery stools), goes off their food they need to be vetted. They're difficult creatures to just diagnose off the cuff and require a lot of vetting care

I agree. She definitely needs to be seen as this could be a partial blockage. If so a barium X-ray is needed
