Ingested Lysol can kill a ferret!
I speak from near experience-- in the early days we took in a ferret for
rehab that came out of a MA shelter-- the box & cage was cleaned with Lysol
adn the ferret ingested it-- the Lysol chemicals caused burns to the
eosaphogeus, gut et.
It was nine weeks or more of intensive feeding as the ferret screamed in
pain with food going down. We saved Gus... but we nerarly gave up. I hope
to never see a ferret so ill from chemical burns.
Wash & rinse the litterbox well. If for any reason your ferret is having
green stools - suspect that there may be an ingestion issue!
