Considering the fact that ferrets are illegal in Washington DC (at least at last check a few months ago) the article was very positive. Yes, they mention the Toronto attack...which I followed closely and even offered to adopt the ferret in question, but the article pointed out that ferrets can be a very good pet in the proper household...which is much more than one might expect in a FFZ report. If the article hadn't been exclusively about ferrets I would have been up in arms about how little mention the potential danger cats and dogs can be to infants. As it was, their were quotes from well respected ferret community people that came across as being unbiased reporting.. While the article didn't proclaim ferrets PERFECT, at least it was honest. I would rather admit up front that there might be problems than have repercussions from someone saying otherwise. (Sort of like covering your you-know-what...)
