Yesterday I read about Himberger Gem reporting a pet store selling ferrets that are only 3 - 4 weeks old. There must be some kind of animal control action that can be brought into play for legal action for cruelty or other charge. The one animal that is so very nippy is only trying to suck and protect itself. Is a normal reaction to being removed from the mother way too soon. She claimed most ferts are dying, that is normal for the situation and grounds for animal cruelty action. I sincerely hope the authorities are brought into play for this one immediately! If they are crossing state lines then it becomes a felony. Gordon and Byte-me [Posted in FML issue 4586]
