Awhile back, someone mentioned they were putting together an emergency kit for thier fuzzies. I would like to put one together, too, and would like to know what should go in it. If anyone has any of their own thoughts on this, please feel free to mention them. Please post to the list, as I am sure there are others who are interested in doing this, also. Re: Is more better? You may as well just start out with 12 fuzzies. That way you won't have to worry about ferret math. You will probably end up with that many sooner or later anyway! Seriously, I feel at least two are good to start with, to keep each other company when you are not home. It also helps them learn to socialize better when they meet up with other fuzzies (at shows, friends homes, new additions, etc.). Besides, there is nothing better than another fuzzy to play ferret games with. I have tried to be a substitute ferret, but I just don't fit in the tubes or under the bed very well! Hugs to the fuzzies and sympathies to the broken-hearted who've lost their loves to the Bridge. Barb and the ever-lovin' fuzzies, Lucy (Mom, isn't there a vaccine for ferret math? I hear it is highly contagious!) & Greta (I wish there was a vaccine to keep cats away!) & Matty the orange fuzzball (why doesn't anyone want to play with me?)
