This breeder's website address is
http://wwwfuzzyferrets.homestead.com/index.html.
A bunch of breeders, myself included, tried contacting this breeder.  We
were concerned about the breeding of what she called a miniture ferret
(named Cindrella).  This jill was the size of a kit and also had no tail -
genetically.  The breeder was claiming she was rare and that she was
breeding.  She advertised this on her website.  But when confronted about
this, she said that the ferret was taken in as a rescue and was already
pregnant.  That information is now taken down and it is stated that the
jill is now spayed.
 
I hope you get things worked out with this breeder.
