Hi all, I guess I have more than 2 ferrets because I LOVE ferrets. I'd have more than 2 cats, if I had cats, or more than 2 dogs, if I had dogs...the more pets, the more fun, the more mischief, the more pleasure. It all depends on you. I love watching three of the guys pounce on the other two, or two different entanglements, going on with two different sets of fuzzies, at the same time. It is such a joy to see them all snuggled up together, little noses poking out from under the others, little paws sticking out everywhere.... It all comes down to how much enjoyment you get, how many you can afford, and how much you love animals (fuzzies, in particular). there's no limit to the amount of love you get from these guys, and the more fuzzies, the more love!! Ever since I was a kid, I have had at LEAST one pet, more if I could manage it. I cannot live without a pet, and having more than one simply makes for more enjoyment and entertainment, and love. But it is all a matter of taste. I have a friend who can't have more than one pet at a time, because she says she can't give more than one the attention it needs. I have no problem with that. It all depends on the individual. All I really know is, that I wouldn't be able to give up ANY of my guys, and I couldn't live without them. Deb.
