Subject: [ferrethealth] Re: Young ferret with bladder control problems.
To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com

I did mean to add that she did have abnormal shaped kidneys on ultrasound. Wouldn't stones present themselve on ultrasound? The
vet (shelter vet) did a thourough ultrasound to look for stones and
anything that might be pressing on the bladder. She is not a big drinker (which I think contributed to her problem) as she won't drink out of a bottle and doesn't like to get her face wet. I keep fresh water in a bowl available at all times. As stated she's had a round of clavamox and baytril after that. No blood in urine, just inability it control it. Also she eats well, plays like there is nothing wrong but just leaks especially when sleeping or caged allowing it to get all over her bottom.
I plan on getting her to my vet this week and getting his opinion and where to go from here.
