* I get this rumor time and again - the canine distemper vaccines approved
for ferrets (Fervac) have only been approved for once yearly vaccination.
The 3 year number comes from some incomplete research currently being done
in cats, and not in ferrets - though anyone knowing otherwise is welcome to
post updates!
Thought I'd post to the list, just in case other folks are hearing this.
