Kelleen asked:
Is this list suppossed to be ONLY the ferret's names you have as a part of
your family, or is this to include all ferrets you have ever had, foster
ferrets, ferrets in a shelter you are associated with and also just any name
you love that you have ever thought of?????
 
I've had one person submit 77 names.  No, I don't think she has them all
now, in fact I KNOW she doesn't.  She called them the 'special' ferrets in
her life.  And yes, I can believe you can have had that many special
ferrets.  The idea for the list was to see what people have named their
ferrets.  I have never put a limit on the number of names you can submit,
nor whether they are living or waiting at the other end of the Rainbow
Bridge.  My only real request is that the names you submit be the names of
past or present ferrets and not names you WOULD name a ferret or WILL name a
ferret.  The first four ferrets on the list (not alpha but in order of
appearance) are MY four ferrets.  The next two are my foster ferrets but
their real mommy gets credit for them.  About 20 or so ferrets later, I
couldn't resist but to add those ferrets that touched my life in the past,
like Beauregard my first, and Anabelle, his sister (my sister's ferret).  If
you want to add on the ferrets you USED to have, go right ahead.  If you
have 100 shelter ferrets and you want them on the list, add away (just be
sure the present owner hasn't already counted them)!  This is supposed to be
fun.  I want to limit it as little as possible.  If I had thought about it,
I might have added a field for whether or not this is a living ferret..
nah, too morbid.  Enjoy the list, I say!
 
Add on! My fingers can take it, even if my husband can't!
