I am not thinking this is what Lucas has, but just wanted you to read about it just incase. It is the FIP disease that cats have, but has also been found in ferrets. When our ferret Ismo had green urine I was searching for anything, and this is one thing I found.
http://www.smallanimalchannel.com/ferrets/ferret-health/emerging-disease-ferret-fip.aspx?cm_sp=InternalClicks-_-RelatedArticles-_-ferrets/ferret-health/emerging-disease-ferret-fip it has a symptoms section
I would imagine it's not something this rare, but wanted to throw it out there as at least something to rule out.

[Mod Note: the FIP-like disease that ferrets get appears to be
a mutation from ECE not from FIP. Here is the coronavirus
genetics work:
