You're right. I think the problem is particular with cars, and with no
air circulation. I've had ferrets in NJ and in CA, with an outdoor cage
(in the shade) in CA. Neither place did they have air conditioning. In
both places, it can get **hot** in the summer - well over 80 degrees.
None of mine died from the heat.
