hello everyone I'm writing for a bit of advice. I'm a medical student, and my so was a graduate student. we were chosen by a wonderful black eyed white last June, and were happy for a long time. However, in December, my so graduated, and he is now in New York with Tass (our ferret). I'm about to graduate, too. I'm going to be doing a residency in Rochester, NY (hello everyone from Rochester). I miss Tass *a lot*. I'm beginning to think about a fuzzy of my own, but would it be fair to a fuzzy to have an owner with such a crazy work schedule -- I'll be on call every fourth day, which means I won't come home at all every fourth night. I know ferrets are flexible, but it hardly seems fair. What do you think? Oh - the fuzzy would probably live in a small room when I'm not around. Thanks, Melanie [Posted in FML issue 1146]
