I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on the age of a ferret for a first time owner. Another question is, if I have my ferret out in my house will they get hurt by little things in the carpet like lint. Do I need to watch that they don't pick something like that up in their mouth. I'd appreciate anyones response to my qestion. I thank those who sent me items about bathing these wonderful furry friends. [MB] [Moderator's note: I'm sending MB the FAQ.
