Don't mistreat zoo animals |
By AMY FLUME
La Crosse Tribune
Wednesday, September 05, 2007
Having been out of the La Crosse area for some time, I took a stroll through Myrick Park yesterday. I discovered that the zoo now houses a ferret. I am disheartened at the lack of care for this animal. She (and her food) was covered in flies and in a building with no air conditioning.
Unless there was another ferret hiding somewhere, I did not spot a playmate for her. Her tail was balding which could likely be due to the stress of being confined. Being a “mom” to two of these very loving and curious animals, I know that they need social interaction to thrive.

Ferret Love |
They poop, they steal, they smell, they (sometimes) bite. They are adored.

You're a reporter. Your editor wants someone on the staff to do a story about ferrets and the people who love them. Amazingly, there are no takers.
So she leans on you, no doubt because she knows damn well that you don't particularly like pets. Dogs, cats, gerbils, even ferrets if you had ever given them a thought, which you certainly hadn't.
You're a team player. You suck it up and take the assignment.
But the idea of talking to people who really, really like ferrets is...if not exactly daunting, it's not something you eagerly anticipate. Recommend this article... |

Man charged with retail theft in ferret caper |
July 22, 2007
The Ocala Star-Banner
A 34-year-old man who reportedly confessed that he stole a ferret from a pet store so he could sell it to a friend and pay his utility bill, now faces a retail theft charge, according to a police report.
Pet Safari's store manager, Susan McCluthey, told officers she observed a man, later identified as Jason Scott Rajo, walking around the store at 1817 E. State Road 40 when the animal, valued at $139, popped its head out of Rajo's pocket.

Freaky Ferret Women |

Unwittingly, it has become my ongoing quest to offend pet owners of all types. Yesterday I came across a PBS documentary series entitled The Pursuit of Excellence:
THE PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE follows filmmaker Mark Lewis’ tradition of well-told stories with compelling characters, combined with an inevitably forward narrative and inherent humor. The featured characters are diverse in background, warmly endearing and sympathetic — people consumed by passion, with strong ambitions in their individual quests. “Passion” is putting it mildly. Obsession would be a more apt term. I didn’t think it was possible but I found a group of pet owners even more bizarre than Crazy Cat Ladies. Freaky Ferret Women: Recommend this article... |

Ferreting Out Some Facts
Dear Readers: What fascinating little creatures FERRETS are (we had four of them years ago), and they can make wonderful pets, but they do have unique personalities and behaviors. So, if you're considering having a ferret join your household, a little research is in order.
Ferrets love to play! And if you're going to have one, you might as well have two. They will keep each other busy, and you'll have hours of entertainment watching them.
