Subject: Re: Re: 3 Year Rabies Vaccine

Last time I brought my kids in for their Rabies shots, the vet checked whether my kids got 1 or 3 year Rabies shots. After checking (I don't know what source of information), she came back to say that dogs and cats would get the Rabies shot that is good for 3 years, but that
my ferrets would need to get their shots every year.

I'm not a vet, and my vet is still learning, but this is what I remember from our conversation.
