Hello everyone! Ok...here is my question...If you bring a kit home ..or any other ferret for that matter...how can you keep them completely quarantined? From what I have read (still a new mommy) ADV can attach itself to clothing and skin. So, wouldn't keeping a kit in a separate cage, in a separate part of the house, on separate litter and food and bedding still have a risk of spreading ADV? You would have to shower and change and wash your clothing everytime that you touched the new kit. Wouldn't you? What about other animals like dogs and cats....wouldn't they spread it on their fur too? I am not saying that quarantining them is bad...please don't get me wrong. I just wonder how you can keep them and your older ferrets completely safe. What about if you go to get a ferret either at a store of from someone you take an ADV testing kit with you? Would that work? I recently added two new kits (right after Christmas) and while they have their own cage and stuff I didn't quarantine them in a separate room. Right or wrong, I just didn't. Maybe I didn't really think that they would have any problems. After hearing about the ADV reports...well yes, of course I am worried. So, how to you keep them completely quarantined? Or am I wrong about how easily it spreads? Joanne [Posted in FML issue 3685]
