If you don't have any ferret friendly pet or pet supply stores near you, the solution is literally right in front of you: the Internet. I have shopped from Ferretware <http://www.ferretware.com> and The Ferret Store <http://www.theferretstore.com> and been very pleased with the great customer service, speed of delivery, quality of goods, etc. And I know they both support ferret causes. The Ferret Store has the largest most complete lines of ferret products I've seen anywhere--they've got everything you and your fuzzy could want! Also check the archives for the most recent Ferret Ad list. Lots of shelters advertise their goods there. If Ferret Central were up :-( you could find many more souces there too. Advantages: You save on gas, don't pay sales tax, have a wide variety of items to choose from, and shipping charges are usually moderate. Happy shopping!
