I have no idea why anyone would want a ferret as a mate. Half the time they don't hit the box, lay in bed most of the day and leave their stuff laying everywhere. They also will sleep with any other warm body, male or female. They expect you to wait on them hand and foot and if you are not fast enough, have been known to bite your ankles. Right now I am looking at a living room scattered with ferret stuff, and he is laying on his back under the TV cabinet banging a toy up and down, just cause he likes the noise. A six foot version of this.... no thank you. -- Pat BA`by Everything will be alright in the end! If it's not alright, it's not the end. [Posted in FML 7314]
