It brings up all the companies that sell any research animals in the Cat/Dog/Ferret category. If you look at the listing for each company, you see some are just dogs, some cat, some have other animals listed such as swine, rabbits, etc. If you click on Products on the right, select Animals, then Cats/Dogs/Ferrets, you will see listing by animal. Under Ferrets, there are no companies supplying inbred ferrets, and only 2 supplying outbred: Marshall Farms and Triple F Farms. Linda Iroff Oberlin OH [Posted in FML issue 4183]
