Hi Danee I do know that the breeder who exported the ferrets to Holland had also exported to the USA, so I presumed it was the same breeder, If not, I can only presume that most of the ferrets in NZ must have or carry ADV and I do hope that none are being exported any more, sorry for my mistake. Then speaking of Australia, Dianne, do you happen to be on the west cost? My husband and I will be in Perth from the end of November until just before Christmas, I would really love to see, and smell (lol) some Aussie ferrets. We will be spending some time in Perth with my brother and driving up to Quairading for a trip down memory lane, let my husband see were I grow up, and then driving down to the Margaret river aria to see the caves and on to the valley of giants, then back up to wave rock . So if anyone can give me a half hour fuzzy shot along the way, I would be delighted and grateful. Thanks, Stephenie [Posted in FML 7481]
