I pray that someday soon the ferret community will come together as a whole with the realization that ferrets should not be sold in pet stores like crickets and feeder fish and feeder mice, thereby joining the dog/cat/bird community in promoting responsible breeding practices.

We are fast passing the point where we can stop the slide into the same awful decisions that the people in dog and cat rescue make everyday by the millions. Mary [Posted in FML issue 2515]
