Well, he sure does have a symptom of adrenal disease now!
Remember, there are ferrets who show prostate enlargement as their first adrenal symptom
and urinary blockages require PROMPT vet care. If this ferret didn't get in to the vet
yesterday then he should today. Otherwise, you risk the urine being forced back up the
ureters causing hydronephrosis which is very hard to get them through safely (very often
fatal and calls for some extreme nursing as well as a lot of time at the hospital, and then a
very long time coming back to speed), and you can even risk the bladder bursting (fatal).
YOU CAN AVOID THOSE PROBLEMS WITH IMMEDIATE CARE.
