Hi Debi,
 
We had a ferret (one of the NJ rescues, in fact) who started having
seizures suddenly.  Her blood sugar was fine, everything else was fine...
our vet suggested trying Phenobarbital to help control the seizures (this
was the first epileptic ferret she had seen, so we were charting new
territory, which we always seem to do anyway lol).  She had a good 6 or
7 months after that.  Keep in mind that she was close to 10 years old
when she passed, and the Phenobarbital kept the seizures away up until
the end.  I hope you have good luck with Zini, and yes, keep us all
posted on how he's doing!!
