It is a true tragedy that the Morris foundation does not have the funding
required to determine the shedding duration in ferrets.  If this were
determined it would save the lives of countless ferrets that are involved
in even the most "minor incidents."
 
If anyone is interested (and I certainly hope everyone here can at least
donate an obligatory $1 per ferret they own!) in donating to the Morris
foundation ferret research fund, the address is:
 
Morris Animal Foundation
45 Inverness Drive East
Englewood, Colorado  80112-5480
 
Enclose a note with your donations stating that they are to be put directly
into the ferret fund, and it would be a good idea to state that you want
your money to be used to determine the shedding time of rabies in ferrets.
As Lenny mentioned, the ferret fund only has $17,000 in it now and a shedding
study might require in upwards of $90,000 so every dollar is needed!  Be
sure to hound friends with ferrets to also donate, and it would be in
everyone's best interest to have ferret clubs perform annual fund raisers
(or biannual, etc...) to raise money to donate to the fund.  Also, money
donated by individuals directly to the Morris Foundation can be
a tax deductible donation.
