Subject: [ferrethealth] Re: ferret drinking own urine
To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com

This subject comes up every once in awhile. You can search in the
archives for the previous discussions, but as far as I know the current
take in the veterinary community is still one big "we don't know." I've
had a couple of ferrets who did this and it wasn't correlated with any
condition. It seems to be utterly harmless but is the most mysterious
aspect of ferret behavior I've encountered to date.
