Okay fellow Ferret Slaves, myself and my Silly Seven have a slight
difference of opinion and we have agreed to solicit input from others (the
ferts prefer ferret responses, but I would like to hear from fellow slaves)
 
Currently, my seven ferrets are all housed happily together in a Large
Super Pet Multi Level Cage.  They all get along with each other (usually!)
and everyone gets along with the Lhasa Apso dogs (Ever seen a 18 pound dog
running from a 2 pound ferret???  The same dog that will take on a
Rottweiler with out a second thought??) Anyway, I digress....My ferrets are
usually out most of the day and put up at night.  I have a lady that comes
in to clean the house twice a week, and I leave the ferrets put up then
(the two new ferrets are retired breeders and tend to nip a little hard).
The question we have is...what is everybody's experience with leaving the
ferrets out 24/7?  I am home most of the time (I am disabled) but we do
not have a 100% Box Hit Rate with all ferts.  Any stories/information/????
would be appreciated.  The ferrets, of course, vote for total freedom.
BTW, the lady who cleans, likes the ferrets.  Thank you in advance
