Mary,

Yes. The high globulin levels result in blood like sludge. I'm always
trying to think of things that may improve the condition of my foster
kids with Aleutian's. My vet and I didn't want to suggest this
treatment outright since we don't want anyone accidently killing
their ferret with rat poison.

Since I'm not the only one out there living with ADV+ ferrets, we
were hoping someone had some input on this drug and any thoughts if
this might work.

Thanks in advance.
