Hi Patricia,
There are several things that can cause
seizure activity in ferrets. Rabies, distemper,
Aleutian disease, insulinoma, lymphoma, fungal
infection, listeriosis, toxoplasmosis, kidney or liver
failure, and Addison's disease can all cause seizures.
How high was her blood glucose?
Diabetic ketoacidiosis could be another possibility.
Hope that helps,
Jerry Murray, DVM
