Lisa,
Sorry to hear about Nala's heart. Here are a few things for you to think
about and ask your vet.
It isn't a good idea to split pills that aren't scored. That means they
have a line going down them. There is no way of knowing how much actual
medication the ferret is getting. It may not be distributed evenly though
the whole pill.
I would ask the vet for some liquid Lasix, it is also a diuretic. That way
you draw it up in a syringe.
If you must split the pills, then try a single edged razor blade. They are
the ones with metal wrapped around one side so that you don't cut yourself.
Good Luck,
