Hi Julie.  I didn't see the ferret's age.  Also, having adopted several
times from ferret shelters as well as a few petshop ferrets, $150 is high
for an adoption fee, considering the ferret is sick and may need follow
up care.  I am looking for a male under the age of 2, but to be honest,
I'm more comfortable going to a known shelter and adopting a ferret whose
history is known and the ferret is deemed healthy by a vet.
 
I'm not trying to sound like a witch, but I'm being honest with you.
