Well first I seem to have missed some FML's because I was going to tell about my discovery of the Redwell books but some some posts regarding it today. More importantly I have two requests for information. (1) Do any of you shelter operators out there have application/adoption procedures you could pass along? and (2) I am away from home for work right now and my vet is watching my fuzzies. When I called today she said that she thinks she just saw her first case of ECE in a pet store ferret. There were two sick ferrets - one had paralysis of the back legs and the second what seemed to be ECE. Bad green poop and dehydration. I am now concerned because she went to my house and visited my ferrets after that. So I need specifics on how to treat ECE. I have heard use pedialyte, duck soup, deliver, ensure etc. for sick ferrets but - what strength? How much? How often? Also - were in Michigan so my vet's not very experienced - is there a ECE specific faq that I can fax or take to my vet? Is there anything about ECE that would cause paralysis? Or something that causes paralysis of back legs that causes ECE symptoms? Thanks for the info. Mary [Posted in FML issue 1507]
