"The swelling is worrisome. Probably indicates they are losing

ferrets?


Hadn't said, but the ones I've checked have had normal or low normal albumin.
Only two of the ferrets have had the edema, and both were in kidney failure,
so I suspect it was more related to the kidney failure than anything else.
