Sandi Robinson was worried. Rascal had been missing for six days after
the plumber accidentally let him out.
A psychic pinpointed Rascal’s location, Robinson tells her guests.
His left leg is hurt, according to the psychic, and he’s in a
bird cage at the bottom of a closet with a cat staring at him. He’s
scared, and whoever has him is feeding him apples and berries.
But ferrets are carnivores, Robinson told the psychic.

When Gale Simon brought a ferret home three years ago, her husband Alan was having
absolutely no part of it.
He threatened to take it to the Humane Society. He didn't talk to his wife
for three days. Then something happened. Over the course of those three days, Simon fell in love with their new pet.
Now he has a room with a three-tiered cage to accommodate his pets.
"I just fell in love with them," said Simon. "They are very loving, extremely
intelligent and like being held."
The Simons participate in volunteer work for the Midwest Ferret Fellowship,
with room to foster up to six ferrets at a time.
"It's really my first calling in life, just because of how much I enjoy it," said
Simon. Recommend this article... |

Sanctuary Providing Homes for ferrets and doves |

You might not think ferrets and doves have much in common. Wes Hurley and Susan Lee disagree. The Pensacola couple has been running their “Ferret & Dove” sanctuary for the last 10 years. The animals do have their similarities.
“They both need taking care of,” says Susan Lee. “They're both domesticated by humans so they both been made dependant on humans, and so somebody's got to try to be responsible for them.”
The sanctuary began when Wesley’s step-grandson got a ferret. Eventually the child outgrew his pet.

Ferret it out |
By Ellie Behling
The Columbus Dispatch
August 23rd, 2007
Every Christmas when I was little, my parents would explain that Santa wasn't bringing a dog or a cat because Dad had allergies. Watching my betta fish get angry at his own reflection didn't cut it, so one fateful holiday when I was 11, we came to be a ferret family.
Yes, I said ferret—the weasel-like creatures best known for appearances in Kindergarten Cop and Along Came Polly (in both heroic and handicapped roles, respectively), and for being outlawed in California. Yes, they sometimes bite—I have a scar on my nose to prove it, but note that I also have a scar from a cat.
Yes, they look like rats—but the carnivores are unrelated to rodents. Recommend this article... |
