Hello all!  I just recently adopted a ferret from a shelter and, because
he was a rescue ferret, the shelter has no record of any vaccinations.
The other day I took him in for what we believe was his first distemper
shot.  I plan on going back in two weeks for his rabies vaccination and
the vet wanted to give him a follow up distemper ( I know NO rabies and
distemper shots at the same time).  Is this normal?  I know that with my
first ferret, which was purchased at a pet store they did a distemper and
then two weeks later another distemper.  I was just wondering if this was
a normal procedure.  WE do not know how old this guy is, but the vet says
he is still fairly young.
 
Any responses before April 2nd would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
 
Kayla, Harley, and the newest addition, Ihop
