Daisy and Gretchen have lots of sway at this Wayne County company.
The whims of these ferrets can influence the launch of products whether it's the latest playpen or a knapsack.
They live in a "mini mansion" in the lobby of Marshall Pet Products, which company officials say is the nation's largest seller of ferrets.
Marshall's ferrets and neutered dwarf rabbits, along with hundreds of products for small animals, are found in big chains such as Petco and PetSmart, in independent retailers nationally and at locations abroad, including in Brazil and Japan. Recommend this article... |

| Fun with ferrets |
Holmen Courier
By CURT TRNKA/Staff writer
Naming the two most popular pets in the United States should be easy for most people. Dogs and cats are obvious answers. If a person can name the third most popular pet, they know a thing or two about ferrets.
That's right, ferrets. According to online information giant Wikipedia, ferrets are the third most popular pet in the country.
“Ferrets are cute, friendly and affectionate animals,” said Leah Kneifl, a ferret owner for nearly eight years. “Ferrets love life and play hard. Many ferret owners love their ferrets so much that they choose to have more than one.”

But playful critters have special needs, rescue group notes
By Kimberly Matas
Who needs a barrel of monkeys for fun when you have a playpen loaded with ferrets?
On a recent Saturday under Ramada No. 6 at Reid Park, ferret aficionados picnicked and chatted, boasting about their wee ones' latest exploits, exchanging diet and medical information, and snapping photos like proud parents.
Meanwhile, the objects of their attention and affection - 18 frisky ferrets - were busy hopping, waddling and crawling around several pens. The fuzzy, slinky creatures burrowed under blankets, crept through tunnels made of crinkled dryer hose and dug furiously in a bin of topsoil, stopping occasionally for a tussle with a playmate.

| Ferret out the facts

Many ferret lovers are praying that the latest "Harry Potter" film doesn't morph from fantasy to horror.
"I'm watching the movie trailer, and suddenly the wizard turns one kid into an albino ferret who looks just like Humphrey!" says David Gaines, referring to his 6-year-old pet. The Fairfax resident shudders at the thought of parents giving ferrets to Potter-loving kids on impulse, recalling the ferret-buying frenzy sparked by the 2004 blockbuster "Along Came Polly," starring Ben Stiller and Jennifer Aniston.
"Six months later," sighs Robin Hochgertel, an Annandale animal welfare volunteer, "ferret rescues were bursting at the seams" as fair-weather fans lost interest in caring for their pets.

Animals are great. Everyone needs a pet, be it a cat, dog or ferret. My roommate and I actually went ferret window shopping the other day. Did you know that only one place in this city sells ferrets? It's Pets Plus on College. The place sells all sorts of exotic pets, and it kind of smells like a llama. We drove around all of Fayetteville looking for the weasels, the politically incorrect name for ferrets, and not even Petco sells them. Recommend this article... |
