I have been through the same thing over and over when I go out or into stores with any of my ferrets. I've even been to home depot yes. lol. Thank God when Sean carries his Rocky to different places people don't come out and say the hateful things they do when I carry a ferret. That would kill him if they did. It would kill me. Its a bad enough hearing it myself Wolfy Please visit: http://www.geocities.com/wolfysluv/ for information on ferret deafness: http://www.geocities.com/wolfysluv/deaf.html [Posted in FML issue 3615]
