Like the others said, it probably is being caused by bedding. Hopefully you aren't using wood shavings such as pine or cedar because that can really mess up a ferrets delicate respiratory system. And dusty litter like cat litter is bad for them as well. Ferrets should have blankets and old t-shirts for bedding with a litterbox full of litter such as woodstove pellets or feling pine.

respiratory infection. Your ferret needs a vet right now if it is going to make it! Ferrets decline very fast if they are not treated because of an extremely high metabolism! Dont use any kind of litter in the litter pan other than Yesterday's News, and dont use any litter in the rest of the cage if you dont want your ferret to get more respiratory infections.

Ferrets have allergies... sneezing is common nothing to really worry about!
I'd ask a vet just incase though!

Your ferret may have a cold and take it to the vet just in case the
sneezing gets worse.

Could be the bedding like suggested, or it could be the litter...I use pellet litter..like feline pine. You dont want to use any clumping litter or anything dusty.

It could be the bedding your useing is to dusty. Try a new brand. I use Care Fresh.

She/He might has allergies? If it doesn't stop soon I would call your vet and ask what could be wrong?
