Oh, please, not that again. I understand what you intended by giving the suggestions and warnings for teens, but I really think that the wording should have been a little more broad. EVERYONE should consider the consequences of owning a ferret, not just teenagers. I myself know of many adults (most of them, in fact) that would definitely be incapable of taking care of a fuzzie. They handle their own lives so badly...:) I don't mean to harp on it, or dig up an old argument, and your suggestions were good. Just try to direct things like that toward everyone. The model ferret owner should have no age. All we should be is responsible, loving, and mature. My heart goes out to all the ailing sharkies out there, and blessings to their patient beans for sticking by them! ~Jessica + Bijoux and Francesca [Posted in FML issue 3078]
