Hello there all. I haven't written in a while, but I do read. Tomorrow I am going to collect my second rescue Ferret. He was found running down the highway, bleeding and terrified. A very kind woman picked him up and took him to the vets where he was stitched up and given good care. The vet said he was the sweetest boy, despite his injuries (looked like a dog or something got him) he never bit or clawed, just cuddled in. I know very well to keep him in a seperate room from my three girls for a week to assure he doesn't have anything nasty, despirte the clean bill of health the vet gave him. However this is my first male. I know they are as sweet and fun as females, I have no worries about that. I even have a seperate cage ready should he prove antisocial. My question is - should I take any different steps when I DO introduce him to his new sisters then I would on introducing another female to the business? I have read on here and in the magazines that Males can drag females around as part of play, and my one little girl is well... a mommies girl. Prefers humans to ferrets, dislikes the others touching her and will play with them only on her own terms. She has her own cage to keep her from screaming everytime one of the others move in their sleep. I don't want her abused as she's such a... wimp. Any suggestions or precautions you advice would be appriciated. Rhoni with Nala, Ling-Ling and Bronwyn (soon Lwk as well) [Posted in FML issue 3496]
