We started reading the ferret list a couple weeks ago, mainly for my husband who was the ferret person. There have been 2 to 6 ferrets living in my house for a year now but they were NOT MY FERRETS. As the sons got their own places the ferret population shrank til we were faced with being a one ferret household, GREAT, less mess, less smell and only one litter box for me to clean even though it's NOT MY FERRET. Well I've lost what little brain I had. We are back up to 2 ferrets, YES, IT IS MY FERRET. Sebastian joined us Sunday, and David, if you are reading this, they get along wonderfully! They share the basket though "Seb" does still catnap in the hammock. He's a little off his food but nothing to worry about. And since ferrets are smart and understand how I feel about the LITTER BOX CHANGING i.e. you don't wait til the next door neighbor tells you to to change it, they even share that.
