Does anyone have information on this breeder? I need all information,
positive and negative.
Yesterday afternoon I got a call for a friend and volunteer. She stopped
at a local pet store and saw a very young ferret in the enclosure. She
said I needed to stop by so after work I did...
This baby was so very tiny, my best guess is 5.5 weeks old and the store
had him and his companion (who had already been bought) for 2 days. When
the clerk opened the top the baby woke up and toddled out of his 'cabin'
crying. I reached for the little one and he immediatly tried to nurse.
I held him close and told the clerk I was taking him. When I got up to
the counter I asked if the baby was from Marshalls and was told they
stopped carrying Marshall ferrets because they were sending them at 4-5
weeks old. I looked at her and politely said "this baby is much too
young and the breeder will hear from me". $150 later Mocha and I left
the store. Mocha is staying with Jessica where he is receiving the
special care such a little baby needs. He has a foster ferret mommy too,
Spritzy. He's in very good and loving hands now. Thank you Jessica.
