Googling for info on Marbofloxacin I found this interesting article
abstract (But it looks like the antibiotic was perhaps mentioned in a
different article and not this ferret one.)

Treatment of a prolapsed lumbar intervertebral disc in a ferret
Authors: D Lu; C R. Lamb; J C. Patterson-Kane; R Cappello

31 October 2004, pp. 501-503(3)
Abstract:
A seven-month-old, male ferret had acute paraplegia and radiographs
showed signs of disc prolapse between the second and third lumbar
vertebrae (L2/3). Hemilaminectomy was performed to decompress the
spinal cord. Histological examination revealed that the extradural
material was consistent with annulus fibrosus and the L2/3 articular
facets were enlarged as a result of bone remodelling. The ferret
became ambulatory one month postoperatively. Five months
postoperatively, the ferret had normal posture with mild
proprioceptive deficits in the pelvic limbs, and fusion of the L2 and
L3 vertebral bodies.
