  • Title: Common procedures in the pet ferret.
    Author: Castanheira de Matos RE, Morrisey JK.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Exot Anim Pract; 2006 May; 9(2):347-65, vii. PubMed ID: 16759951.
    Abstract:
    The domestic ferret is an increasingly popular pet in North America and Europe and may easily be incorporated into the structure and workings of most small animal hospitals. Not only does treatment of ferrets provide case diversity and intellectual challenges to the veterinarian but it may increase revenue, because most ferret owners have several ferrets. The diagnostic and supportive care procedures used commonly in ferrets are similar to those used in dogs and cats. This article presents the common diagnostic and supportive care procedures used in ferrets, with special emphasis on some of the unique aspects that make these procedures easier to learn and perform.
