Hi there everyone!! I am just wondering if any of you out there have experience with blind ferrets? I am wondering becuase I would love some information on how to determine exactly if a ferret is blind. We got 2 new kits at the pet store where I work (black eyed white female, cinnamon female) and I have a feeling that the cinnamon is blind. She has GREAT difficulty climbing up on things... she acts as though she can't tell where to grab. When she walks on the floor she goes cautiously and walks with her head down to the ground with all her little whiskers touching the floor. She doesn't seem to follow movement at all and reacts, maybe over reacts if something touches her...in that I mean , she gets really excited!! These two are SO freindly (CDC gets two thumbs up from me, Hagen two down) and I am so attached to them. The little white girl is going to a new home today, but I dont want the cinnamon to go to just anybody. I feel so sorry for her. I want to take her home, but can't afford it (haven't even paid for poor little Echo yet)!! Also any information anyone can e-mail me on training a blind ferret, or just generally raising one, would much be appreciated. -- Truly, LiZ and D.J. http://www.norlink.net/~state [log in to unmask] [Posted in FML issue 1825]
