I use a Sherpa brand bag for my guys. I think I have the medium sized bag, and I use that for two 4-lb ferrets (very boisterous boy ferrets, I should add--with different personality types, you could probably put two ferrets in the small bag, and definitely you could put one ferret in the small bag). Sherpa bags, while pretty expensive, are very sturdy and have a solid enough mesh that I think a ferret can feel some degree of privacy in there yet still have great air flow and some visability. There's also plenty of pockets for food, water bottles, vaccination papers, etc. Some models are also airline-approved, so that's another plus. They're widely available at pet supply stores, including The Ferret Store online. I have no relation to the company other than as a satisfied customer :-) The one caveat is that if you have a ferret who understands how zippers work even from the inside, you'll need some kind of clip to keep the zippers from being opened. Yep, this is the voice of experience speaking! ;-) Regina Regina Harrison [log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask] http://www.channel1.com/users/regina/ blog: http://www.channel1.com/users/regina/zblog.html Is that my business? Well, what is my business? Do I know? Did I ever know? Let s not go into that. You re not human tonight, Marlowe. Maybe I never was or ever will be...
