Hi Amy,
I am in the Air Force. I have also been stationed at Fairchild AFB. Like
any other Air Force Base, that veternarian was most likely Army, not AF.
The Air Force recognizes the ferret as a domestic animal, while the Army
does not. Ferrets are unwelcome on Army posts. I'm stationed on an Army
post in VA. The vet here refuses to even give my ferrets a rabies shot.
This tends to cause a lot of problems with Air Force personnel who are not
stationed close to a ferret-wise vet. Maybe in the future, the regulations
will be changed. Then we will work on the ignorance.
