Subject: Re: Very sick ferret (bladder crystals, pus, blood)

I realize that you may well be dealing with a cause that does not
involve adrenal disease, but don't forget that adrenal disease is
a major cause of urinary tract infections. In such cases surgery
is very helpful.

If you look through the archives by using the search engine at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Ferret-Health-list
you wil find a great deal of info on crystals.

BTW, if an individual is prone to such crystals it can pay to find
out what foods can lead to them abd remove those from the diet.

I am sure that some folks who have taken corrective measures
wil be able to help you.
