>if they just get the canine distemper, or feline distemper, or both, and >should they get their Rabies and distemper shots at the same time or >about a week apart? Just the canine distemper - ferrets do not get feline distemper. Separate the rabies and distemper shots by at least a week - I prefer two or three weeks. And remember to stay at your vet's office for at least a half hour following the vaccines, so that any reaction can be treated immediately. >Also, should we request any type of blood work to make sure everything is >fine? Can adrenal disease be detected through bloodwork, or is that a >guessing thing for the vet? At this age, I would recommend at minimum a cell count and a blood sugar check to screen for insulinoma. A blood test is available for adrenal disease, but is expensive, and most of the time the diagnosis is made based on clinical signs.
