Well next week I will be moving out to Michigan. I was wondering if people out there on the list who live there could let me know what kind of things are going on out there, ferret shelters, adoption places, any FerretCons and things like that. Also, I was wondering what people's experiences are with moving ferrets. I will be driving my car, it's about a 10 hour drive. I was going to put them in a smaller cage that I have which will still give them plenty of room and they will have a litterbox in there as well. Water would just spill, as would food, so I am going to give them stuff at every rest stop and snuggle 'em so they aren't too freaked out by the whole thing, as well as having to adjust to a new home. I know not to leave the windows up n all that, but I was wondering if, in case it were necessary, if people think or have had experiences where, a mild sedative would need to be used in case they really freak in the car for some reason. My girls are pretty calm in general so I dont think its necessary at all and I dont l ike medicating them at all unless they need it, but I was wondering if it may be a good idea simply as an added safety precaution to have something with me? I'm assuming that I won't need to and they should be fine with attention every few hours at the most, but wanted to hear other people's experiences with longer moves. Thanks!
