My husband and I are looking for a companion for our female sable. Tavi is around 3 years old. She is semi-calm (for a ferret) and extremely friendly. We feel that she needs a playmate other than an overly energetic puppy and a non social, older cat. Eight hours is a very long time for anything to go without someone to play with. We would like another female younger than Tavi and fairly tame. An older female that is tame is not out of the question. We are looking to spend less than $80. If you know anyone in the Indianapolis area who is trying to find a wonderful home for their carpet shark, please e-mail us. Brett and Sheila :-) Fortville, IN [Posted in FML issue 1372]
