My vet is telling me my ferret has JL. She has used two blood tests and chemestries to determine this. My ferret has lymphocites at 63%, globulin 3.45, and two enzymes that indicate there's something going on with the liver. Could she be jumping the gun? I suggested she take a fecal sample to rule out any sort of infection (I'm dropping my ferret off on Friday for this). Does anyone else have any ideas? I only wonder because my other ferret had something similiar wrong with her (lethargy, dropping weight) and then she took some heavy duty antibiotics for another problem (gunk on her tail). She got better immediately.
Any suggestions are welcome,
Katherine
