I'm sure our vet would say something like "absolutely
not". Podo has no history of reactions until he was
eight. Ayeka had none till age five. Podo's first
reaction nearly killed him.
Separating the two shots guarantees that you know what
causes the reaction. Also, if the ferret is reactive
to both vaccines the results could be much worse. No
previous history is no guarantee that things will be
fine next time.
All the best,
Caity and the super seven
