My ferrets eye is watering?
I know what you mean, the roads here are horrible as well and taking an animal to the vet this second isn't a safe option for either of you. Let's see if this is something that will pass in time. A clear discharge from the eye may indicate an allergy. Ferrets have sensitive respiratory systems, and the same things that irritate ferret lungs can irritate ferret eyes. The most common cause of allergy is from the litter box. Avoid dusty clay litters, or any litters with special added scents. Cedar and pine shavings also irritate ferret eyes. Another common cause of allergy is from deodorizers that humans use to cover up ferret odors. Sprays, rug powders, and gel-type air fresheners can cause ferret eyes to tear as well. Usually discharge from the eye (stickier than tears, and whitish, yellow, or green) or swollen eyes indicate an infection. Keep an eye on him and see if gets worse or interferes with his playtime; but it seems to just be an allergy.
