My 3 1/2 year old ferret has been urinating excessively over the last week. He is still eating close to the normal amount of food, a little less, same food as always to include small pieces of fruit; however, he has increased his urination amounts by at least 4 or 5 times the normal amount. The urine is clear and does not have an odor. He has also lost a lot of weight in the past week. Today he is looking weak and skinny. No fur loss, no coughing. Still having normal bowel movements, just not as much. Still wants to run through the house and move around, but is having a hard time. The amount of urine and the continuous urination is becoming alarming to me.

I'm not sure what could be wrong with him, but i would recomend getting some pedialight, to replace the fluids he's losing.

have you taken the ferret to a vet to get him checked out? I dont think you should get answers like this. i personally think you should try the vet before listining to anything else.
