This where I get to vent, right? Nobody's "supposed to" get all ticked
off by what I say because I'm not directing any anger expressly
toward them, unless they're guilty of the very thing I'm griping about,
and how could I know that, about their actions or inactions, huh? For
instance, I absolutely have a problem with people who are willing to
enjoy their pet and everything, until it becomes ill and to save it's life,
could easily cost them more than it was to purchase it at the pet store.
NOW THEY WANT TO SEND IT TO A SHELTER BECAUSE THEY
DON'T WANT TO SPEND THAT MUCH ON THEIR POOR SICK
PET!
This is Lucy, she is a healthy Ferret, and healthy Ferrets have a very healthy curiosity!  I'm sure she saw the bags
and thought "Hmmm, I wonder what's in those!?" Then, as she was lookin' around in the bag, she probably thought, "Hmmm, I
wonder what's in this box right here"?  I'm sure it didn't  take very long for little1.1 pound Lucy to scatter the Fruit Loops.  A healthy
Ferret absolutely, CAN NOT continue  their LIFE, without knowing what's inside ANYTHING.  They're very good with "SPACE
RELATIONS" too by the way!
Many people discover that tyhe ferret they bought is too much for them to handle shortly after bringing it home, especially if they
thought they didn't need a cage.
This probably explains why so many we get in are still just babies "which is the perfect age for a ferret to bond with their new
human". Once a baby bonds with us,we just got another ferret to live out it's life here. Soon we will be building a state-of-the-art ferret
habitat with all the ammenities they could ever want!  It'll be fabulous!

Recently, I was asked to take in a ferret
that was ill w/adrenal gland disease. The
owner didn't "want" to spend the money
it was going to cost him for his ferret's
life to be saved! He said to me, and I
quote: ("I don't want to spend that much
money.....bla, bla, bla")! A 3 year old
female, which is VERY YOUNG to have to
die because her "parent" can't or won't
pay to save her life, which will be more
than half her life lost! Unfortunately we,
at this time can't budget in sick ferrets. I
told him to go with her to the S.P.C.A.
and see whether they would give her the
surgery, or euthanize her, then please let
me know what they told him. He didn't
call, so now I wonder! We would have
taken her if that were the only way to
save her life, we didn't "want to" but
"would have" used our money to cover
his lack of responsibility! The fellow
w/the sick ferret, didn't even want to
spring for the cost of the 120 mile trip to
bring it to us. Maybe he just couldn't
afford it, or has no car, but I don't care,
(we sometimes go to pick them up too)
he's broken his promise to his pet who
loved him, and that promise he was
supposed to make, and honor was to
make sure she had everything she needed
to live the longest, best life possible! This
includes doctor visits and the bills that go
with them. Adrenal gland disorders are a
relatively common, yet serious illnesses of
ferrets, that we are supposed to take into
consideration and plan for when we
decide whether or not a ferret is the right
pet for us. Can we afford, or are we
going to be willing to accept the
responsibility and pay the price. Another
reason I feel so strongly about ferrets
and their right to a full, happy life is, for
one, it's not that long of a life in the first
place, 6-10 years (if the doctor told me
that's all I had left, I'd want it to be only
"GOOD TIMES UNTIL THE END").
Secondly,  they are so intelligent, and fun-
loving, and have such a high regard for
their best friend, "their human", that I
just think we owe it to them, to be as
good a friend to them as they are to us!
You wouldn't turn your back on your
child if they came down with cancer,
you'd take them to doctors or the
hospital, you'd do everything you could
for them, right? Well, if you have only one
ferret, then you are definitely their best
friend, you are, when they become ill,
their most needed friend! If you had the
ferret since it was a baby, it would want
you to be there at the end, not some
stranger they hardly know. They want the
one they love to hold them and comfort
them as they go. They need you now
more than ever, they have the same
feelings as you. They want to die while
being loved and comforted by their best
friend but mostly, they want the life you
should have promised when you chose
them, they didn't choose you. ♥♥♥
I've chosen to be an advocate for ferrets
because they do have instincts that are
annoying to some humans, and sometimes, we
humans drop the ball when it comes to
picking out a pet. We sometimes do things
on the spur of the moment, and if that is
deciding to bring an exotic pet home
without first researching the animal fully,
making ourselves knowledgeable about it,
then it is our fault if we are surprised
when it tears up something of ours, and we,
the one who made the mistake should be the
one to pay for it, not the animal! Why
should we expect to get our "money back"
especially if it is at the expense of the
animal!  One pet store, I won't name, an
employee there told me that if a ferret is
brought back with the customer saying that
it is "mean and bit them hard enough to
draw blood", and the customer is given a
refund, the animal is destroyed! I don't
know if this is true, but it would be a
pretty bad deal for the ferret, eh?
They're just babies and have to learn "how
to play with their new human", ferret skin
is tough and they're used to only playing
with ferrets, not wimpy, thin skinned
humans! ♥♥♥
I've been working on
this thing for several
days and as I said
before, I'm NOT a
web designer. My
first obligation is to
our ferrets who love
us, play with us and
teach us all the
"ferrety tricks" they
know! To them, we
promise to love and
play with them at
least twice a day until
they pile up and fall
asleep. To care for
them so they have the
best, happiest,
healthiest, and fun
filled lives possible.
So, that's why I only
have this much done,
I've been playing!
If you keep your ferret in a cage day in and day out,
only speaking to him/her while you drop off food and
water. If it never gets to "come out and play", This
is solitary confinement! If it's life now consists of
languishing in it's cage, that's the definition of
IMPRISONMENT! What did it ever do to deserve
this? Please give it to someone who will love it!

Ferrets are great pets, very
intelligent and oh so curious. They
are much like kittens, but their
playfulness and curiosity lasts a
lifetime! If you just love playing
with kittens but, take em or leave
em is how you feel about adult cats,
then ferrets may be for you. They
are forever young at heart and love
to play. Ferret behavior is
different than cats or dogs. They
have a definite personality and it is
as varied as those of humans.
Ferrets like socks, with or without
feet. They like shoes too,
everything inside must be removed,
no exceptions! Ferrets select
treasures and hide them in their
favorite, secret place, you'll see
them go there often, on the way in
they have something magnificent
hanging from their mouths, and
return empty handed, or (mouthed)
and it may be that their secret
hiding spot is clearly visible, but
don't tell them that. When a ferret
comes into your home, you need to
know the "law of the land", What's
theirs is theirs, and what's yours is
up for grabs.
