Hi all. My female ferret, Rhea, is having some difficulty lately. I've
spent over $160 now at the vets. I think she has a discharge when she
urinates, and then litter, well.. it tends to stick to her private area.
i end up soaking her in warm water for a few minutes until the obstruction
comes loose.
doc says she's emptying her bladder so he's not worried. i changed the
litter brand, and even used paper towels for a while. she stops using the
pan altogether when it's not filled with litter. i can't seem to convey to
him that this is a real problem for us. this has continued for weeks now.
docs says bladder infections are uncommon, but we tried antibiotics
anyway - they just made her throw up, so that was futile. she even had
x-rays, and she seems to be in good health. (they were looking for stones)
anybody else having this problem? got any ideas? e
