[Yes, I also missed that and difficulty urinating can
cause difficulty defecating, too, so it does not only
just look like it sometimes.
People differ in how they describe the weight of
ferrets with adrenal disease. Some just gain and
some just lose, but most have the fat redistribute,
so that they become more pear-shaped. The result
is a thin thorax (causing some people to call them
thin when they see the ribs) and a big abdomen
(causing some people to call them fat when the
belly hangs down and even drags).
