Sebastian has Liver issues...

[My Peanuts]

I'm so sorry to hear this. Maybe the stress from Miko's passing brought on these problems. I hope he gets well soon.

Thanks everyone. I had to call the vet this morning. Sebastian's been on the meds since Monday evening. Had him out last night and after wrestling with my fleece pants he decided to fall asleep in them. He has never, ever fallen asleep anywhere but in his cage and then it is always grudgingly. Had him out this morning before work and he did it again. So I called the vet. I am to keep him on the meds for a few more days and see how he does. Likely we'll be seeing the vet again on Saturday as she thinks his "disease" is making him slow down.

On top of all the pet issues, I had my first mammogram on Monday morning, I have to go back at 10 am today, Wednesday morning, for more films. And the sweet woman told me not to stress!!

I did some reading about ferret liver issues and discovered that they can have milk thistle (for cleansing, rejuvinating the liver). Faxed the article to the vet and got his permission to put Sebastian on it. Started it last night, he will take it in his chicken soup no problem. We'll see if it makes a difference to his health. He's still not interested in kibble however. He was really fussy with his meds this morning, proceeded to spit out his antibiotic (all over his mommy). I don't know if it is because it tastes bad or its cold because it has to be kept in the fridge.

Thanks all for your good thoughts.

My cockatiel Alex had liver problems. That's all the vet would call it after tons of tests, "liver problems". They put her on milk thistle and antibiotics and in a few weeks she was totally fine. She never has liver problems again after that. Good luck!
