Has anyone elses' ferrets had this? Trina has had it twice, and Teri had it once. There's a bacteria in their intestines thats' supposed to be there, but sometimes their body produces too much and it gives them diarrhea. If you look at a stool sample under the microscope, you'll see a whole bunch of purple rods, and there should only be a few. She's on amoxyicillan (sp?) and it will clear up in a few days, but why is she getting it? Tessa and Sugar don't have it, and they haven't been around any other animals for the last 6 weeks. They haven't even been outside recently, except to go to the vet. Where is it coming from? Sue Trina Tessa Sugar [Posted in FML issue 3966]
