DISTEMPER OUTBREAK - Please Read if you're in UK- will you please warn all of your dog walkers about the distemper outbreak and to make sure their dogs are vaccinated. It is in South Yorkshire, North Nottinghamshire, Warwickshire, South Staffordshire, and parts of Southern and Eastern England. It has now reached Derby - 17 ferrets have had to be PTS in Derby with distemper. Several of these have been out and about in Derby before showing symptoms so everyone needs to be aware that it is about.

storys have been going around the net for months, however ive not seen any physical evidence of any sort, there was an alledged case at a ferret rescue centre but i was led to belive it was a reaction to the disinfectant they were using rather than distemper.

Nope the NFWS have had post mortems done on a few ferrets that have died, and distemper has been confirmed.
