Ferrets can go into shock (which is an acute fall in blood pressure) for example caused by a loud sudden noise, being chased by a predator, from an accident or injury or any similar sudden, quick movement; certain diseases can also cause this condition. Shock may not be instant and a delayed from the time of the incident to the time of the reaction may occur. The symptoms can vary: cool skin, pale lips and gums, faint rapid pulse; staring but unseeing eyes; from panting and lethargic to a catatonic state of rigidity, depending on the depth of the shock. A ferret must be kept warm and the blood circulation returned to normal as soon as possible. To help a ferret suffering from shock, wrap in a towel or blanket, and place him in a warm quiet spot. Massaging your ferret to encourage circulation, while speaking softly and using gentle strokes will help recovery. It is advised to seek veterinary care for any accidents or injuries
so mainly let them bite you to ease the shock
or see Paris Hilton for help
Yes. If a ferret gets extremely scared, injured, cold or hot it can go into clinical shock. Symptoms of shock in a ferret include: pale skin on the ears or nose, cold skin, grey/blue gums, shivering, fast heartbeat and unresponsiveness.
If your ferret is in shock. Keep it warm by wrapping it loosely in a blanket. Keep the ferrets surroundings as quiet as possible by turning off radios, tvs, washing machines etc (anything making loud noise). Do not try to feed or give water to the ferret. Get the ferret to the vet as soon as possible.
