  • Title: Ferret hematology and related disorders.
    Author: Siperstein LJ.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Exot Anim Pract; 2008 Sep; 11(3):535-50, vii. PubMed ID: 18675733.
    Abstract:
    This article summarizes the general topic of ferret hematology, including discussion of restraint for phlebotomy and phlebotomy sites, red and white blood cell morphology, interpretation of the hemogram, and normal and abnormal factors affecting the hemogram. In addition, the apparent lack of blood groups and techniques for bone marrow aspirates and blood transfusion are addressed. There is much still to be learned about the ferret and its diseases. We often depend on tests as simple as the complete blood cell count to help guide us in our diagnosis and treatments of this patient.
