I just checked the Archives and it would seem that ferrets don't get canine parvo virus. What they do get is Aleutian Disease Virus. It would be a good idea if you could find a more knowledgeable vet or get your vet to talk to a ferret vet to get more info. You can also check the FHL Archives in the Link section of FHL. I only skimmed and there were lots more references. Is your fert eating? drinking? Could be a number of other things too, possible ulcer but it does sound serious and I think a more knowledgeable vet would be able to help more.

Hes got black poo, They are small and tarry.
He's not playing, hes lathargic and has back end weakness. I waighed
him and hes lost 0.3kg or 300g in 10 days thats 25% of his waight. Ive
got him in the hospital cage to keep a close eye on him. Since my vet
is really clue less i wonderd if anyone here had any ideas.
thanks in advance of any advice :D
