One of the people who is allergic t ferrets that has NOT been mentioned
is a BIG ferret advocate. Natalie Antinoff (http://gcvs.com/), ferret
vet extraordinaire, is highly allergic. The day I went in with 11
ferrets to see her she was masked and gowned to avoid a flare-up, as
she was having a particularly bad allergy day. It was also that day
that another vet, her protege Dr. Tim Tristan, had a cancellation
and assisted in the visit. He later moved to Corpus Christi where I
introduced him to my current vet and he joined the practice! Small
world!

Oh, my daughter is also allergic to ferrets. Didn't know till she
couldn't breathe!
