Sorry to hear that, Larry. It sounds like blood sugar levels are a very serious threat to those little cuties.
Is there a home blood sugar level test that you can use? I know they are pretty standard now for humans. Hope they all make it home safe tonight, Jerry Johnson >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 02/06/03 09:28AM >>> Hi Guys, Wendy and I had a very nasty start this morning. We were woken up this morning about 5:30 AM - Ryoga (our oldest ferret - about 7 years old) was having a seizure. We had to drive to the nearest emergency vet in Springfield, VA, about 30 miles from home - we made it there in about half an hour, right at the start of rush hour. They measured his blood glucose levels at 30 mg/ml, normal is around 100 or so. Fortunately after getting IV fluids and dextrose, he was doing a lot better. We stayed there for about an hour or so, until he was stabilized and took him to his regular vet at Eastern Exotics/Pender Vet Center. So here I am at work with the other 3 ferrets waiting to hear back from the vet. This morning sucks to say the least. larry -- Larry C.
