im thinkin of gettin ferrets as i think there cool. What i wont to know is are they easy to keep as in do they have special requirements. my uncle used to have em years ago and i`ve liked them ever since and do i have to get a pair

I want one too but hubby and I have different views on the matter :| I say yes, he says no!

how much are they to buy with cage

jediwarrior been a long time since u posted this lol u come on well since, sorry just thought i would go to one of the first posts lol

Yes how times change... I think he liked them :hihi:

yes i got 14 of our own and 4 ready for re homing and 2 going on 26th

lol id love a ferret but i dont have a clue how to tek care of 1 4 years at col doin anima care and managment and i came across 1 ferret, lol, im avn a hamster instead lol,neway well done hunxx

you can get one from a rescue center, thats what we did , tilly started to live outside in a run but eventualy she became a house ferret, she was de sented when we got her and she litter trained very quickly , which was great as we didnt have a wiffy house lol

Was utterly confused then! I thought "but Jedi has got LOADS"!

I should've checked the date before jumping to conclusions:hihi:

lol my fault bizzarely wanted to go to first ever posts see what was there lol i cant jo jo i have 2 dogs and one of them is new and dont know what shes like, she dident like the cats to well so i wudent risk i tlol,but the other one would just mother it

*Wonders if haddock would let me have a ferret*.......

sneak 1 in then say aaaaawww look what i found on street we cant just let it go, worked with me when i was young with the parents, although it back fired on me 1 day when i did actualy see a bunny in the street and i had nowhere to put it as i was full of rescued bunnys lol

Hehe that'd be naughty....shall I??!:hihi:

I seem to attract random dogs on the street, I always have, and I did once find a ferret on my mum's garden, so it's quite plausible! Be his own fault for working away this weekend and not being here to control me wouldn't it?:hihi:

yes very he should be around to keep u on a short lead, besides who could leave that tiny little ferret shaking under a bush that ur going to find this weekend,poor mite needs some love and attention lol

I can highly recommend ferrets - we rehomed two from jedi and they are little stars... I am completely hooked :)

How are they with cats?

Damn the fact I've made him look at the pet section more then he used to, or I might just have got away with it :hihi:

lol that wa a bit silly wernt it

I know, just have to rely on my eyelases and the fact that it's my 21st next week:hihi:

guess what, i am 21 lol u jelous although a 9 month old and 2 dogs make me feel old lol

How are they with cats?


dont know LM. even though we have cats we havent allowed them out together. mainly because the ferrets are young and we want them to get used to us first. also buzz had a habbit of nipping annd wouldnt want him doing that to the kittens - but as he is getting a little older he is settling. Im sure they could get used to the cats in time but doubt they will ever cross paths other than when the ferrets are out in the runs in the garden. :)

my cats keep out of the way when ferrets are out. I can honestly say ferrets are a great pet always wonting to please and like ive said we have some ready for re homing. We will not give a ferret out IF we think it wont be the right one for you. We have go some hand reared ones here and are a little older but we are getting ready for kit season

here are some of our ferts

I'm sure Maddie and Ginger would keep out of the way, but April is into bloody everything and has to "help" with whatever you are doing:hihi:

Do you keep them inside Jedi? I'm sorry for being so damn ignorant, I know lots about most pets, but ferrets are one animal I've never had any contact with! Do you feed them that specialist ferret food I've seen in the pet shop?

My God they are gorgeous!

they are we have not had to foster yet but may consider it with it coming the breeding season

we keep 1 or 2 inside spooks is in as he is not well he is the one found at aston they are great pets but if you are thinking of it please please do your research as they are not just a normal pet and need some special requirements ie food ect

Yeah we wouldn't get anything unless we were certain we could do our best for them! At the moment, our financial situation is preventing us from adding to our furry family, which is sad, but I don't want to get animals that I can't look after properly, obviously.

I'm still dead curious about the little monkeys though, they are just so gorgeous! And fun, according to everything I've ever heard!

well i will be happy to foster, but only only the fact if they could live inside as my neghbour has a not very nice dog and will eat anything in its path including people lol, so all my animals are inside even my girls ( dogs) dont go outside

we have not had to foster yet but may consider it

ooo if you do ever have to foster i would love to help out :)
