Just wanted to let everyone know that we have added a new fert to our
ferret family. Although no ferret could ever replace our Tazy who crossed
the bridge 2 months ago, I couldn't help but open my heart and my home
to this poor little guy. Apparently someone had left him outside the
Kitchener Humane Society in a cage with a note that said to give him a
good home. Our SPCA rarely gets ferrets, and I only call once in a while.
Anyways this fella was in the back in isolation as he was just dropped off
the day before. He is a beautiful panda with a full coat and dark piercing
eyes. He has a white head and bib, looks like he is wearing a hood. He
looks like a ghost with those eyes and white head. I think its kind of
spooky the way he ended up with me and I have always wanted a panda ferret,
hence the name Spook. Took him to the vet yesterday for the once over and
shots, (no health history) and the vet said he was at the humane society
yesterday and someone had dropped off a ferret in a cage with a note.
Well, obviously it was the same ferret!!! Too spooky!!! Anyways, clean
bill of health, the vet figured he is about 10 months, just a baby. Gets
along great with Kiwi but Max is a little territorial, might need some work
there. Spook has a very gentle nature, easy going, playful, very sweet, he
fell asleep on the sofa last night beside Mike watching TV. He seems very
comfortable here, I am glad.
A comment on "selling pets", I do believe in putting a price on pets to
"weed out the scum" as they say, but if a person comes along with whom you
feel is the right one to adopt your pet, you could always waive the price.
