Sorry if this repeats a thread that went through just a few months ago. I mainly focus on points that immediately relate to my kids, and at the time, none were drinking urine. Bubba is a heliocobacter (Sp?) ferret. He has been "normal" now for a few weeks, except... for the last few days, he has been drinking his urine. Not just a few licks, but every time he goes, he drinks it all as if he is really thirsty. At these times, he has plenty of water available from a bowl. Sometimes he isn't even even finished going before he turns around and starts drinking. This started on Friday. Any light shed on this matter would be greatly appreciated. My luv to the fuzzies!
