OK, so I've been bugging our vet about this great new distemper vaccine, can he get it for us, etc. etc. The vet tech called Merial and this fantastic new distemper vaccine costs TWICE AS MUCH!!! as Fervac. Guess what - our shelter is going to stick with Fervac for a while. We've been pretty lucky as far as reactions go (knock on wood), but we certainly can't afford to double our cost per vaccination. (Of course, it helps that our vet never charges us extra when we DO have a reaction - bless him!) I'm surprised no-one else has mentioned this, because it is certainly an issue for shelters and anyone else who has a lot of ferrets and/or financial issues. Sara FURRY [Posted in FML issue 3572]
