Canine Distemper Outbreak in Ferrets
Ferrets are now receiving more vaccinations before being shipped, but they have not finished their series. Documentation that the pet store has for any given ferret may be off as far as birthdate and ages as the correct documents received from the breeder may not end up with the same ferrets - especially if the pet store is housing ferrets received over several weeks. We have now heard that there is another outbreak happening in Eastern Canada. Stay tuned.Ferrets require a series ending at over 14 weeks of age.
Dook Soup
There are commercial products on the market, but it is far simpler to make - especially for owners. Recipe: Grind up regular kibble and add water until is is thoroughly liquid enough to go through a syringe. If the ferret is ill add in: (any) Emeraid Carnivore (Lafeber), Critical Care Carnivore (Oxbow) or Recovery (HBD).Basic recipe, Washington Ferret Rescue & Shelter
