Hi. I'm considering getting a ferret this fall if I can find an apartment that allows pets. I've wanted one since I was 10 (1981) and played with one in a pet store out west somewhere. Could someone give me some tips as to what to look for, what to watch out for, and where should I get one? Should I get two? Also, what are the health problems I can expect? (It seems that the ferrets you folks have are having some problems) How can I avoid such problems? I'm on a college student's budget, so I don't have that much money for hospital visits, etc... Thanks! Jonathan Hendry [log in to unmask] [Posted in FML issue 0260]
