Yes we do test our ferrets. I usually use the quick saliva tests which you do not have to purchase in bulk of 10. We are only accepting emergencies at this time anyway. I think it rather unfair of you to judge my budget publicly. It is always a delicate balance and $100 can be put to better use for food/litter etc. (especially when it was my own personal money that was put out, not from the rescue budget) . Food & Necessities (imo) is a little more important than ribbons & trophies.
