Bobby! (re: rabies vaccines) IMRAB (the ferret Rabies vaccine) HAS been proven, and has recieved FULL approval from all the necessary agancies - I'm sure there are people here who would have the actual paperwork on-hand to send you! BUT - the SHEDDING period (how long ferrets shed the rabies virus in their saliva before they show signs of rabies) hasn't been determined, although so far, all studies point to none or almost none - BUT.. Untill that period has been determined, and repeatedly proven to some of the officials out there, they will still use that as an excuse to kill any ferret that bites for testing. :( as to Killed or live vaccines - ONLY USE KILLED VACCINE! Live Rabies Vaccine has been known to GIVE the ferret rabies..! Hope this helps! (that's all for now!) Matt Ouimette U.F.A. [Posted in FML issue 0591]
