Anne that was a great story! Was that Cloud Nine Shelter? I'm not far from you here in Chattanooga. I met the shelter dad, Mark from Cloud Nine and his branch shelter Judy. Great people. I think this is a great topic by the way. I can't wait to read some fun stories about shelter ferrets. Let's see what's a fun story about Sean's Rocky? Okay I got one. Sean was at a friends house the other day and after I picked Sean up, he told me they had expressed to him that they wanted a ferret and were considering getting one. Well, I kinda was skeptical about the situation there, so I sort of cringed and asked Sean what he told them and if he had told them about all the hard work involved. He said, "I told them it might not be a good idea for them at all because it's soooo much work." I said, "oh good, you told them how hard it is to have a ferret then? Good." He went on to say emphatically, "yeah, I told them you have to cuddle them, kiss them, hug them, talk to them, play with them each and every day!"
