Crick in neck? - CLICK HERE for the Pet Manual Forum Home Page

For the past day, Sherman (5 years old healthy as a mule) has been turning
his head/neck to the right when looking up. Checked his ears and from what
I can tell, they look and smell fine. No gait problems... Eyes seem to
react equally. So, I think a stroke can be ruled out.

Anyone dealt with a neck problem on these little guys?

Any small injury or trauma to his spine, back, neck that you know of?
Could he have played *Superferret* without you being aware & injured
himself?

I hope Sherman will be okay. Hugs for Sherman.

Oh of course - even at 5, he is still Super Ferret. He and Bubbles have
free roam of the house. We see the vet tomorrow. If it is a stroke, then
so be it. I just want to rule out any injuries, if possible. Maybe get him
a little pain relief.

I envision a long vet visit, as my country vet will have to call someone in
Tulsa or OKC to get a few questions answered.

Thanks for the thoughts.
