1) Response to Irene O'Donnell (re: ferret names)
Well, I got a boy first. My 8 year old daughter kept trying to name it
George or Tom or Ralph. I told her I wanted an unusual name. So she
finally came up with "Sado" (sounds like a Japanese word). So I said okay.
Within one minute, we were calling him "Soda" as it was easier to say!
A couple months later, due to ferret math, we were buying a baby girl at
the pet store to be a companion to Soda. As the gal behind the counter was
writing out the paperwork, she said aloud to a co-worker that the kit was a
cinnamon ferret. My daughter piped up and "Cinnamon". That's a beautiful
name!
I didn't get any unusual names, but I'm so in love that it just doesn't
matter!
2) Response to Robynn McCarthy (re: Super Pet cages)
I too think the large Super Pet cage is wonderful. I love the way the cage
sits a couple inches above the plastic tub floor, and lifts out easily to
make cleaning a breeze. As well, having the entire top lift off makes
access better too.
The danger is in the doors, though, through human error. The door and cage
edges shut tightly without a space gap. My daughter accidentally closed
the cage door too fast on our little girl fuzzy's toes. It is absolutely
horrible to hear a ferret scream! Luckily, she and her pinched toes were
a-ok.
