Why 3....hmm...Good Question, Why?! I prefer many more! I'm telling you 9 is a great number! At my parents house (with a much bigger ferret room) 18 is a perfect number. Of course we both have our loners. I subscribe to the belief that some ferrets just weren't meant to have playmates. OUr Ashley Lynn won't even place nice with cats. Our new fuzzie Hemi screamed bloody murder when she tried to scruff him. We have a group of 2 that are best friends but the group of six really is the most fun. 6 different personalities create very different interactions. They are so great to watch! Man I love Fuzzies!
