If you want to keep a pet, traditionally bad press that these charming little animals have received aside, ferrets must come pretty high up on any rational person's list of ideal companion animals.

Ferrets are strange little animals- and you normally either love them, or can't stand them. Admittedly I've never been keen on them myself- I thought they were smelly, nippy and generally nasty little critters! But that was until I acquired, through no choice of my own!, three of the little horrors, and my mind began to change instantly. ... Read the complete review

One of my friends has a ferret and I personally cannot stand the animals. To me it was a strange choice of pet for him as he is quite a clean and tidy person which seems to go against what I have seen and heard of ferrets. Now im not saying you should not keep ferrets but from what I understand the only reason people kept them ... Read the complete review

Hey folks, I’ve been a bit absent of late, due to not attending college, getting very drunk and cutting my fingers on guitar strings. Why do the damn things have to be made of metal, I ask you?
