Information gathered from STAR* Ferrets annual survey showed, out of 86
responses, 59 respondents used FERVAC - D (68%), 21 used Galaxy - D (24%), 3
used both or either, and three others used other vaccines to protect against
distemper (3% each). Respondents are shelters who either indicated their
vaccine or the one their vets use if they did not give their own shots.
