Subject: First Distemper Vaccine

I took Hopper (9 weeks old) to the vet for his first checkup and
distemper
vaccine today. He was playing and normal for the rest of the
evening. It's
2:30 am now and he just threw up all over my bed. Poor baby. I
called the
emergency number in VA and the woman told me that this isn't
uncommon with
ferrets. She suggested that I take his food and water away for 24
hours and
observe him to make sure he is okay. I know it's probably no big
deal but the
vomiting worries me. Is this a fairly normal reaction to the
distemper
vaccine?
