ryaldinhio 4,125 Posted September 2, 2019 Report Share Posted September 2, 2019 Noticed couple days ago one of my young hobs has a cut/tear on his back near his shoulders. He must have got it from fighting with the others. Any tips on cleaning other than wrestling him and trying to get a drop of salt water in there?! He doesn't seem to be in any pain with it. He isn't trying to bite me etc when I touch/clean it he is just writhing around as young ferrets do so it's awkward. Fur is a bit matted around it but the cut itself doesn't look to bad, no puss or swelling etc so was just guna carry on doing my best with salt water. Any tips appreciated. Quote Link to post

Purple spray on an ear bud pal usually does the trick if it’s clean keeps all the sh*te out Quote Link to post
socks 32,253 Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 Purple spray is a bit harsh for ferret skin just carry on using the salt water mate ... put it one of those rose sprayers and give him a good soaking job done ........ 1 Quote Link to post
