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 ~~<:))))><~~~<:))))><~~~<:))))><~~~~~~ >*)((((((>>><~~ Erin E.
