Mike,

>>>to announce to the world that had aquired sick animals is just bad form,
shame on you.

I am not the one posting about her hamstery having Papova/Polyoma. Jana is
the one who has been posting about it for months now on international boards.

>>>She has been in quarantine for 6 months and working closely with her
Vet. She has been Given the all clear by her vet to resume breeding.

Perhaps her vet has learned more than we know so far about the virus. I know
many people would love to hear that information too. Just in last month's SHC
journal (a BHA affiliate club), another member is writing about putting all
hamsters in her hamstery down due to the virus. The virus is still moving
around even in places like Britain that have been battling this for years.

Please share if there is now more info which everyone should know. The rest
of the world may still be in the dark about this disease, and we would
appreciate any information to help deal with this disease.

This is the article most commonly referenced. You can read how difficult it
is to get rid of the disease. This is from real experience in Britain and
from the research done at the time. Like I said, if this research is dated
and we now have more, we need to share it.

LInda why do you have to be so mean? Jana is one one of the best
people I have had pleasure to corrispond with, she kind, thoughtful and
cares a great deal about her animals( unlike some who are selfrightous
and arrogant).
to announce to the world that had aquired sick animals is just bad
form, shame on you.
She has been in quarantine for 6 months and working closely with her
Vet. She has been Given the all clear by her vet to resume breeding.
Don't go compairing her to the delmation Man..She is a far better
person then Most of you on this list and other list on yahoo.
