Much talk about Seattle Petco stores and anguish over sales of itty-bitty
ferret kits to general public.
 
1.) Itty-bitty kits will continue to be sold by Petco stores for as long
    as a profit is realized.
 
2.) General public not too knowledgable about ferrets.
 
3.) Itty-bitty kits are cute, cute, cute.
 
4.) General public loves cutie pets, especially little frisky jump-abouts
    with black beady eyes.
 
5.) ???Question???  How to educate general public about pet store ferrets
    before purchase?
 
///Summary/// If you can't educate the general public about pet store
ferrets, and it seems obvious that that can not be done by all the
anguish on the FML and on the FHL, then what do you do?  Join PETA, the
ASPCA, the HSUSA, the anti-WTA?  Noooooo, Noooooo, Noooooo, and Noooooo.
 
+++Answer+++ Let's hope that Sandi Ackerman and Danielle Frye have an
answer.
 
PS.  Viewed Sandi Ackerman on Seattle local TV news today as an advocate
of rabbit rescue and the near hopelessness of educating the public to
refrain from releasing their pet rabbits into the great outdoors.  Bless
her heart.  So many rabbits, so few responsible rabbit owners, and oh!...
so many hungry ferrets [sic].
 
Hmmmm.  Does the same thought come to you as comes to me?  Noooooo!
You're not suggesting ...
