Subject: high urea level

Dear group,
My ferret recently underwent a complete removal of one kidney due to
a combination of adrenal tumor and a malfunction in this kidney which
showed in a severely swollen urther. After this surgical masterpiece,
the ferret (6 1/2) years old, male) is doing absolutely fine, all
blood values are normal- except the urea levels, they are 3x higher
than normal. Does anybody know which diet one could feed. Is it true
that a diet low in protein could help? how could I make the ferret
drink more and would this help? Diet is a problem since the ferret is
very spoiled.
