To the person who was asking about ferret prostate glands: My vet told me something similar. He said the gland is not a true gland as it is in male humans but prostatic tissue which forms a "U" or cup shape around the bladder. When it gets inflamed or enlarged it presses into the bladder causing the symptoms your Percy has (and my Antony, too). Ellen [log in to unmask] & Antony ("yea, I'm the one with the enlarged prostatic tissue" & Lexie ("prosthefittelyatic what? I don't have one of those, do I?" & Babe ("I'm too young and restless to care about tissues... except the ones that come in boxes that I can tear every single tissue out and then jump in the box") [Posted in FML issue 1932]
