Took my daughter a week to talk me into getting them and they have not only won my heart over over night but also the other 2 members of my family Samson and Goliath who are at this moments running around playing with them. I am in awe, anyway I would like any info anyone could give me on how to care for these wonderful delightful little guys so that I may give them the best of care :D number 3 they should number 1 also do they need yearly shots? Should I take them to the vet for a check-up? So many questions so much research to do would love any and all the advise I can get. Thank you and Thank you for this web site. - Donna Fri, 29 Jun 2007 07:38:39 +0100 http://www.ferretlife.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=41&Itemid=2#pc_30 Hi Sydney. I have owned ferrets for many years. I can\'t tell you they don\'t have their own odor. They can be a little musky. But they sure don\'t smell as bad a my dog when he\'s wet! Many people believe ferrets smell horrible based on what they heard. Or maybe they came across a ferret that had not been taken care of properly. And when they actually meet a ferret for the first time they try hard to find that odor which really isn\'t there. I see that all the time with friends and family. :roll: (PS: You don\'t want to wash a ferret too often as it will increase the muskyness :wink: ) I wish I had something to tell you Sydney. There are many ferrets in shelters and rescues that need homes. I don\'t know how old you are, but you may want to see if there is a local shelter that can use your help as a volunteer, though for many reasons they have age restrictions. If you ever do get a ferret, please make sure to read \"Ferrets for Dummies\" cover to cover. And try to adopt from a shelter. - FerretLife Fri, 25 Aug 2006 19:22:21 +0100 http://www.ferretlife.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=41&Itemid=2#pc_29 :roll: I want a ferret, but my mom says I can\'t. She doesn\'t like ferrets cuz\' they stink. I said he/she won\'t stink if I bathe him/her once a week. I really want a ferret. But I know a lot about ferrets already from the internet. I don\'t know whats her problem. I ask her a lot. I don\'t know why but, if she saw me taking care of that ferret, she would let me keep it or get another one. I really want a ferret, but I don\'t know how to get my mom to say yes, or where to get one to show her. I\'m confused and need advise and help. Signed, Sydney Bell :wink: - Sydney Bell Fri, 25 Aug 2006 15:37:47 +0100 http://www.ferretlife.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=41&Itemid=2#pc_2 To the webmaster for placing our story on your page. We are trying to get the word out about these wonderful fur kids and this article was a godsend for us. I'm truly glad to see it posted on other sites so the ferret community as a whole can somehow benefit from any individual shelters trying to help out.

The purpose I had behind this site is to spread the word, and keep the ferret community informed about what is happening in the world of ferrets. Tom Kasner - Guest Sat, 21 Jan 2006 17:38:05 +0100
