Ebay does not allow for animals sales and that is listed in their
prohibited items.  When someone lists something that is prohibited it
does not always get flagged at first depending on how it is stated.
That is why ebay has an email where you can report items like this.  Her
wording was just right that you did not know if the ferrets were included
or not.  She did change her wording now and revised the auction.  But
with millions of listings that ebay has, it is impossible for them to
monitor this.  That is why they rely on the public to help them.  Here
is the link to report something:

Hope this helps clear up some issues.
