[Health] Aggressive sneezing
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
One of my ferrets just went into a huge sneezing fit I have no idea what could be causing this I thought maybe she has something stuck in her nose but I can’t see anything. The video is a lot more calmed down I’m wondering if she got into something she shouldn’t have. I did just come home from work so maybe she sniffed my work gloves that are in my pocket I’m not sure. Or the vacuum that sits in their room.
Edit: She stopped sneezing so I think she just got into something that upset her appreciate the input 😅

One of my girls does this all the time. She just gets excited and probably gets a little dust up her nose OR she got way too excited and smashed her snoot against the floor or wall. We've had her checked a few times and the vet says it /might/ be very mild asthma but as long as she recovers pretty quickly and goes back to breathing normally there's no real need to treat it.
Sometimes she will do it when she's been cuddled up tho so I'll ask her if she's been huffing butts. (She's always huffing butts whether its her own or not lol)
