>My vet said it was possible for my ferrets to catch colds from us, but >I didn't realise it was only a specific virus they could catch. Carol well knows after meeting me on various sites that I have kept ferrets for many years, in all the years I have kept ferrets I've have had to deal with their daily needs weather I have had flu / cold or not, so as far as I can tell none of my ferrets have never caught any of my bugs. Here in the UK we have a lot of difference of opinion when it comes to vet's talking about ferrets and the cold / flu bugs, or ferrets in general, if you would like to know about the vet I use in Shrewsbury e-mail me.
