UTIs in ferrets are usually secondary to other existing conditions, so don't assume that ONLY
a UTI is there.

There are still immediate risks if a ferret is not urinating. If there is a UTI there then the
kidneys are under even greater risk if the urine backs up, but even without an infection it is
high risk situation.
