Hi! I have a problem, I can not find any vet who can get blood from my ferrets without a struggle(we usually end up getting less than 1ml). I am also a vet student and I would like to be able to do this efficiently myself someday. All of the vets have tried to get blood from the jugular-they will not dare try the caudal vena cava technique(and I personally don't want to do it myself-looks to risky.) My 3 year old Marshall farms ferret "Kabuki" is now having slight signs of adrenal disease, and I want to get the blood test done for this disease. ANy suggestions on venipuncture techniques in ferrets? --- Lisa M Tieber [log in to unmask] [Posted in FML issue 2475]
