As shelter people, we felt that we had to respond to Sharon McLaughlin's complaint that she wasn't allowed to adopt because she lived in a no-pets apartment. Ask your local shelter how many ferrets have come to them or come BACK to them because of no-pet apartments, and maybe you will begin to understand why they would not adopt to you. Many ferret shelters will not adopt to people who live where ferrets are illegal for the same reasons. We don't mean to doubt your love for your ferrets, we're sure that yours are very well loved.
