Hello Keldayh,
You ask a very IMPORTANT question. We do RECOMMEND yearly ADV tests at time
of annual checkup on all ferret we adopt out to families. Of course at
time of sudden onset illness it is also prudent to test for ADV as
well. In these times when the contagion is out there and promises to be
around - can you think of a better way to make sure your ferrets get the
best care you and the vet can give them?
