Hello everyone,
I have just been given a ferret........and oh is he a cutie:-) He is a 3
year old male, he has the masked bandit look.......he is so adorable. I
can't wait to show him to my two daughters (7&11).....he is going to be a
very pleasant surprise to them. Since I found out I was getting him, I
have been reading all that I can find about ferrets and I have a few
questions.
1) What is the ferret favorite for the floor of a cage (outdoor carpet or
tile squares glued to paper bags)? I am also open to any other suggestions
2) I live in the Cleveland Texas area, does anyone know of a vet who knows
ferrets in that area? Or maybe Spring, Humble, or Houston area?
3) What are the required immunizations for a ferret? The person who gave
me the ferret said that he had his initial shots when he was a baby (now
he is three),
and she does not know of any others he needs. I believe I seen on the
internet somewhere that they should have annual K-9 rabbies shots...
Please tell me what they need....so I can take good care of him. I've only
had him for about 5 hours now and I am totally taken with him.......lol. I
think he will be needing a friend sometime in the near future...........:-)
5) O.K. last of all and least important. You may have noticed I have not
used his name throughout this message....it is because I am not too crazy
about it. His name is Madison, o.k. it might not be that bad of a name I
just think it sounds kinda girlish. My question here is can you change a
ferrets name? I understand he is three and maybe it wouldn't be the best
thing to do..........I just thought I would ask about that.
Any other advice would be very much appreciated:-)
Thanks,
Kelly
