I'm in the Seattle area and you can stick me on the Foster Ferret list.. I know there are shelters around but I have room to take in more fuzzies if needs be. I'm also looking for a breeder in the area.. So if you are one or know of one, please let me know.. I've staked out as many as I can at this point. **** And in regards to the dumb questions-- I take my fuzzbutts with me whenever I go to work (just to visit) or to pet stores. They love riding in the car.. Anyway, as I was coming out of a petstore with Oz on my shoulder a lady near me said "Oh my god, she has a huge white rat!!!." I hardly think a 5 lb albino ferret looks anything like a rat.. But hey, who am I? The most frequent question I get is "don't they stink?" or "aren't they mean." And like Kat, I want to be sarcastic and say stupid things back.. But I usually behave.. Usually.. And give the proper speech that I've gotten used to giving :) ~ Megan Dahlem [Posted in FML issue 2224]
