I'm wanting to adopt or buy a ferret but I have a question about cats and ferrets. We have a 1 and a half year old cat that we've raised from a baby. He is pretty frisky and has plenty of toys that he bats around the house. I've read that you can teach the cat and ferret to get along but I'm concerned about my cat's claws hurting the ferret. I don't plan on letting them alone by themselves but I hope that they could play together. For those of you that had a cat before they got their ferret can you respond? I've thought about getting my cat's front paws declawed but just wanted to know how other people have handled this. Thanks, Annette [Posted in FML issue 2990]
