Thanks for the condolences, I only had the cinnie for a short time so any sorrow over her death was mostly just me feeling bad she had to die, <and of course the financial loss>
You guys are right, most people do not QT in separate buildings and hardly any long enough or fight off an RI and sell the animal once they figure its better. Nikki I commend you for already keeping yours separate for so long, most of my animals are only going to come from people I know and am familiar with now, and even those will be kept separate for at least the four months, Im honestly leaning closer to six months as you already do and anything I -have- to have from an unfamiliar source will have to wait longer.
