My friend's ferret started having seizures Sunday. His blood glucose was low and she started him on pred. He was also spiking a temp and she started giving subcu fluids. I was over there Monday and he got pred, 40+ mL of soup in the 2 hours I was there, slept for an hour on my chest and was perking up when I left. The temperature spikes were fewer on Monday nite and Tuesday, but this morning he was more lethargic. He only had a seizure when his temp spiked. She took him to the vet today and this is his blood work:
GLUCOSE: 293
BUN: 26
CREAT: 0.7
PHOSPHORUS: 5.7
