Subject: FIP a danger to ferrets?
To: ferrethealth@smartgroups.com
Message-Id: <6.1.0.6.0.20040811003639.0036fdb8@pop.central.cox.net>

A week ago I took in two kittens and the possibility that they might have
Feline Infectious Peritonitis has come up. I certainly hope and pray this
is not the case since I know the outcome is almost always death for FIP in
cats. My question here, though, is whether or not this virus poses any
danger to my ferrets. Right now the kittens are in the strictest
quarantine we can manage. Do I have a reason to worry for my fuzzies?
