  • Title: Excellence in exotics: Practice tip: ferret urinary tract catheterization.
    Author: Hoefer HL.
    Journal: Compend Contin Educ Vet; 2013 Feb; 35(2):E6. PubMed ID: 23532905.
    Abstract:
    In ferrets, urinary tract catheterization is most often indicated for neutered males with a urethral obstruction. Obstructions are commonly caused by prostatic enlargement secondary to adrenal tumor hormone production or, less commonly, by urolithiasis. A ferret with a urethral obstruction needs immediate intervention to relieve the obstruction.
