Your ferrets will, at some time, need to travel outside of your home.  Trips
to the veterinarian, vacations with the humans they own, and any other
reason your ferret(s) need to leave home is particularly danger- ous due to
the record hot weather.  Someone taught me a useful tip that I would like to
pass along.  It, at the very least, means comfort for your ferret(s), at the
most, a life saving technique.  Freeze a bottle of water in any small bottle
(such as a Gator Ade bottle).  Put the frozen water bottle into a double
sock pouch to absorb the perspiration from the bottle.  Place the entire
sock/bottle combination into your pet's carrier to go with them and help
keep them cool.  You may have air conditioning in your vehicle, but there
will be times they will be exposed to the elements, and this summer is
shaping up to be a hot one!
