Considering what a horrible (and almost certain) death
canine distemper is in ferrets there is no way I would
take that risk. My ferrets get vaccinated unless
their systems are too compromised to safely be
vaccinated.

Nyssa (who is in the late stages of lymphoma) will
miss her vaccinations this month. The other four get
theirs on schedule.

All the best,
