Hey, I have been reading all of the posts related to the Heartworm Topic. I was wondering what kind of heartworm preventative should be used?. Also, has anyone ever heard of Carolina Ferrets? My husband found them and we are supposed to be getting a ferret from them. They are in North Carolina, about an hour past Greensboro. I just want to check before we got a ferret from them. (Yes it is a breeder, but when I can't get the woman that runs the ferret shelter here in Richmond, VA to call back when leave her a message, or to even respond to my e-mails how can I possibly adopt) I have even left her a message and an e-mail asking if I could volunteer at her shelter and that didn't even warrant a reply!. So PLEASE don't FLAME me, I am only asking b/c I know this is the best place to ask. Thanks for your help, Jamie (you can e-mail me personally if you want) [Posted in FML issue 4631]
