I wish that I could give my ferrets three-four hours of play time every day of the week. Unfortunately, I cannot. I have a full time job, and I have other things in my life besides the ferrets, so some days they have to stay in their cage all day. I feel guilty, but that doesn't make me a bad ferret mom. They get to play in my bedroom, which (knock on wood) seems to be ferret proof, but I don't feel comfortable leaving them out when I'm not home. So please don't let anybody make you feel bad if your ferrets don't get play time EVERY SINGLE DAY. Sometimes, life gets in the way. If they were caged all the time, that would be different. Sara Ferrets are thieves, and the first thing they steal is your heart. [Posted in FML 5748]
