I've been here since early 1995 I think. It seems there were about 1000 members. Wow! My ferrets are better than ever-even Winnie isn't biting-and they LOVE to run around and play with the cats! At first I may not have understood them, but now I know them I think that they are GREAT! Also, happy to say, we now have a LARGE selection of ferret diets at our local Petsmart! Also cages and supplies! Since my ferrets ARE getting older now, and all but Winnie are "rescues", I notice that they have become sweet and loving "lap-ferrets". Thanks for several years of advice and community, and hope for lots more! Karen [Posted in FML issue 2162]
