https://www.avma.org/resources/pet-owners/petcare/zoonotic-diseases-and-pets-faq

WE HAVE TO GET FREE VENOUS BLOOD CULTURES, THROAT SWABS, STOOL, URINE SPECIMENS FROM ALL OF THE MAMMALIAN ANIMALS IN THE ANIMAL SHELTERS, SO WE CAN TREAT ALL OF THEM, INCLUDING WITH MORE VACCINATIONS, SPAY/NEUTER CLINICS.

THEY MAY HAVE SEASONAL ALLERGIES, COVID-19, AND/OR CONJUNCTIVITIS/PINK EYE. 

TRY TO ADDRESS ALL OF THOSE CONDITIONS, BEFORE GETTING THEM ADOPTED OUT.

****************************

SET UP OBEDIENCE TRAINING FOR THE FERRETS, WITH THREE MINUTES OF TIME OUT IN A BORING ENVIRONMENT, IN CASE THEY BITE.

https://www.themodernferret.com/how-to-stop-ferret-biting/

1. THEY MAY HAVE BEEN INJURED, HAVE A STOMACH ACHE FROM EATING SOMETHING THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE CONSUMED, OR BE NON-SOCIALIZED.

2. TRY A GENTLE SCRUFFING TECHNIQUE, AND MAKE A HISSING SOUND, IF THEY DO BITE, LIKE THEIR MOTHER FERRETS WOULD DO, TO TRAIN THEM ON APPROPRIATE PLAY LEVELS OF ROUGH-HOUSING.

3. THEY MAY BE TEETHING, LOSING THEIR BABY TEETH, OR RUTTING/ADOLESCENT MALE FERRETS, SO ATTEMPTING TO FIND OUT HOW FAR THEY CAN GO, WITH VIOLENT, BULLYING BEHAVIORS.

4. THEY HAVE TO BE OUT OF THEIR CAGES, FOR 6 HOURS/DAY, TO BE PROPERLY SOCIALIZED WITH THEIR HUMAN FAMILIES AND FRIENDS :

BITE INHIBITION SKILLS AND AWARENESS CLASSES MUST BE RUN, FOR ALL FERRETS :

https://www.themodernferret.com/why-baby-ferrets-bite/

FOR THOSE CLASSES, WEAR THICK GLOVES, TO PLAY, PET, CARRY THEM, SING TO THEM, BUT, TRAIN THEM FOR 6 HOURS/DAY, WITH THE HISSING SOUND, UTILIZING A BORING, THREE MINUTES IN TIME-OUT AREAS, AND THE GENTLE, SCRUFFING TECHNIQUE, IF THEY ARE BITERS.

GATHER ALL VOLUNTEERS TO SOCIALIZE THE FERRETS, AND TEACH THEM BITE INHIBITION SKILLS.

ALSO, TRY TO GET ALL MALE FERRETS NEUTERED, AND ONTO THE APPROPRIATE PSYCHOTROPIC MEDICATIONS.

REMEMBER, THEY ONLY HAVE A THREE MINUTES LONG ATTENTION SPAN, SO TRY HARD NOT TO PROLONG ANY DISCIPLINE ACTIONS BEYOND THREE MINUTES. 

THEY WILL ALL NEED ANTIDEPRESSANTS, AND SEDATIVES, FOR A YEAR, WHILE BEING SOCIALIZED, AND OBEDIENCE TRAINED.
