Good questions Christy! I wish I could offer some concrete answers for you but at the moment I am at a loss for where to look for the info. What I can tell you on personal note is this... a friend of ours and her son were due to come visit next week, the son has come down with a bacterial infection of some sort and has been under the care of the doctor for 2 weeks -when his mother asked the doctor if it was safe for us and our animals for her child to come visit the doctor told her no even though the child had already been medicated for 2 weeks. The doctor (whom I do not know) said that while a human would probably be fine, it was highly questionable to him whether or not the child could infect the animals and that it was better to be safe than sorry.

As for enclosures, we have several designs we are in the process of building now. All of them are cabinet style, meaning that they are not permanent attachments to the house and can be moved when the time comes. We don't have any photos yet, we're hoping to have some in a few weeks. In the mean time we will be happy to describe them to you -email me or post here and let me know if that will be at all helpful to you. Also, you may want to talk to Penny as she is knee deep in the process I believe and has already gathered tons of info! Sorry to rope you in Penny! :)
