Thanks to everyone who responded to my request for information on transporting ferret, however, I will not be getting the ferret I wanted after all. I told Steven about the ferret and he said that if I got another ferret he would give both of them away. I have been asking him to consider it for the last two months and really thought that he would see why I wanted a companion for Lucy and give in but he is still totally against it. I hope he changes his mind before for Lucy's sake while she is still receptive to new comers. She loves the rest of our animals. If she gets along well with others now will she continue to be open to making friends or will she later reject a new friend or is there no way to tell how she will react in the future? Love to all, Irena...Lucy's mom [Posted in FML issue 1497]
