P.S. I do NOT know if the Helicobacter even did flare with these
ferrets.  That part of my note is worded that way simply because a post
(which was mostly on interpersonal interactions of others which I don't
want to hear about and which tend to really turn me off in a major way)
asserted that it had, but that person is NOT at the shelter in question.
So, it may have flared or it may not have, or it may have in a few under
stressful conditions like surgery just as can happen with any other
ferrets.
 
i DO want to thank shelters and others involved in rescues and legal
seizures (including the British group which had it's first successful
action against an animal hoarder) which go to the trouble of doing such
good in the world.  Thanks so much!
