I hate to see one breeder singled out. Bad things happen to ferrets
whether they are rescues and you don't know their pedigree, or from pet
shops, or breeders. I recently bought one because I've lost so many
over the years that I have taken in and given a home to only to watch
them die too soon. I bought from a highly reputable breeder and after
I'd only had the ferret a year he was diagnosed with kidney problems
and dilated cardiomyopathy. I won't have him long and it's breaking
my heart because I love him dearly. The point of my message is though
that I would never blame the breeder or reveal that person's name to a
public list because the ferret was sold as a healthy ferret and had vet
check-ups, etc before selling. The person did all they possibly could
to ensure I'd have a healthy ferret and unfortunately it's just the
luck of the draw sometimes.
