In regard to the question of allergies and ferrets, one of the reasons that I chose a ferret was since I am very allergic, and was told that they don't have dander like other animals, such as cats and dogs. I have had no problems, allergy-wise. On a non-related note, I can understand why a ferret would be interested in a can of Coke, but can anyone explain to me why my Feona loves to grab my remote controls, and drag them to her little storage area? I think it might be because she always sees them in my hands, and she wants to be like me. Or maybe its just a strange ferret fetish. Mike Gershbein "Life is a Minestrone!"
