My first time online here and I would appreciate some advice/reccomendations. Fred is my 2 year old male ferret whom I recently relocated from NYC to Potland OR. A good quality of life move for me, but I'm concerned about Fred. While he more or less had the run of the Apt. in NYC, my OR Apt. has a fireplace and is incredibly difficult to ferret proof. Fred, I fear, is spending way too much time in his cage. I continue to give him lots of "hold time", and he appears quite healthy and unstressed. Nevertheless....... Any input is appreciated. Thanks.
