I'm kind of a lurker here on the list, but I have got lots of great information from everyone. I ran across this site today and wanted to share it. The address will be at the bottom of my post. It has all kinds of great answers to the basic questions of getting a ferret. Who ever put together the article knew what they are talking about. So if you know someone who is looking to become part of the Ferret Frenzie, I suggest this site as a starter. Here is the link : http://www.soyouwanna.com/site/syws/ferret/ferret.html Thanks, Jeff L.
